Why stop at banking? Hell, we all know the government can do everything better than private industry. Don't forget that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are GSE's...Government Sponsored Enterprises. They did a wonderful job of getting people houses they couldn't afford. And now Franklin Raines, the same guy that ran Fannie Mae during the height of the sub-prime boondoggle, is Obama's financial/economic adviser. Obama is a great judge of character and talent for the people he has surrounding him. Oh, by the way, Raines walked away from Fannie Mae with a $17 million parachute. I hope that gets redistributed by Obama. I need some new equipment on my boat and I don't want to use my money.
