can someone tell me why that government hasn't considered bailing out the taxpayer/the troubled homeowner instead? like a reversal of the trickle down theory where you get the banks to lend by backstopping their asset values by guaranteeing/subsidizing loan payments? bail out the homeowner, who in congress is going to say nay to that?
was there any consideration for the bailout plan to work from the bottom up? subsidized payments at the homeowners level to create a backstop for these securities at the root of all the trouble. if congress won't pass a bailout for wall st, how about a bailout the american home owner?
