If people selling their homes has so inflated the market that they priced themselves out of the market, then they, not the taxpayers should eat that loss.
If people were dumb enough to sign a mortgage with terms they couldn't afford, they should suffer the consequences of that mistake, not the taxpayers. Next time maybe they will read before signing.
