Lending practices are the outshoot of long experience with lending results. It’s a business — one which which the government should not tinker.

With rates at less than 3 percent, the paper needs to be rock solid with minimal foreclosures.

On the one hand, "No Way!".

On the other, there's no way to avoid it. It's accepted widows and orphans investment wisdom that Treasury securities are the safest of all.
