In a civilized society, should anyone or any government ever force anyone to do anything against his or her will as long as that person does not infringe upon the life, liberty, or property of another?

Fannie Mae wants more of our money

Why did the government ever get into the "you-ought-to-own-a-home-and-we'll-make-it-easy-for-you" business? The knuckleheads in D.C. created the Federal National Mortgage Association, nicknamed "Fannie Mae." Well, you can't run government like a business because of the lack of prices, so walaah! - it's now broke. In fact, they want billions more of our money to stay afloat, as you can read here.

If the government had just followed the Constitution, which doesn't mention home ownership, we wouldn't have Fannie taking so much of our money.
