If I recall correctly, regulating the out of control mortgage lending in 2000-08 would have made housing more expensive as well. If the cost of avoiding another global recession is people finding it more difficult to buy their first home, then I think we should avoid the recession and downsize/privatize Fannie and Freddie.

Bingo! I'm only 36, but I'm already betting against Fannie and Freddie for this reason. I was in stocks in 2017. I was in bonds in 2018. I just switched out to fixed income, which is mostly Fannie and Freddie 30-year bonds. Once that bubble finds its top, I'll move on the next one. The goal of making housing cheaper has only created an arbitrage opportunity for the wealthy.

In Canada, we don't have 30-year mortgages anymore. Also, the banks did a stress test a few years back, to see how many current mortgage holders would be able to afford their own mortgage had the rate gone up. 25 years is the maximum you're getting nowadays.

I feel like they left out (or at least didn't emphasize) that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were private prior to 2008. Maybe it would have been too much to cover, but it also seems like they should have mentioned the repeal of Glass-Steagall when explaining how mortgages used to work. That repeal is what allowed for the financial crisis in 2008. Still, it's nice to see a video covering this topic!

@Gin Yi Lee Honestly, I think the people/public can have a lot of power in either scenario (as far as making Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac private or public). It just comes down to making educated decisions. That's the real problem. It's hard to play the game when you don't know the rules. But, since you asked, my two cents is that you're chossing between which generation you want to protect. Keeping them under government control keeps the value (somewhat artifically) high, fo now. That's important because so many people don't have retirement savings. The vast majority of people look at their house as their retirement. If you privatize them, there's a chance the mortgage rates will go high and the home prices will go low, and that will favor the younger generation who currently find it hard to buy a house. I'm in that generation, and my feeling is that I want to protect my parent's generation. I'm young, I can work hard, I believe in my generation even if the news outlets don't. I think we've got this and maybe the most "woke" thing we can do is be the generation that stops asking the government to hurt one group for our sake and instead looks to build ourselves up and bring other groups up with us. ... Sorry for the diatribe. :)
