The US Government takes over Freddie and Fannie - Assumes $6 Billion in Debt

Looks like it is finally happening - The US Government is taking over Freddie and Fannie and nearly $6 billion in debts.

Apparently, Morgan Stanley was about to issue a report says (now hold your breath) that both Freddi and Fannie had over stated assets on their accounting records and have less reserves that people thought - rumors were spreading and they had to do something before Monday or there would be a panic

Should be interesting on Monday

    The very people fighting against Capitalism are the ones who will sell themselves into slavery, ie: Golden Handcuff's on Media Faces.
