President Obama gave a big speech last week on his plans to increase home ownership in the US, including helping more people who are upside-down on their mortgages and winding down government-backed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Since Rick is a frequent guest on my America Weekend show, I invited him back to explain his argument.
