Social justice idiocy aside, the plan also calls for incentivizing home ownership for people who really shouldn't be putting that kind of money on the line. The exact same set of incentives are what led to the subprime mortgage crisis because the Clinton administration couldn't get it out of their heads that not everyone needs to take out a $250,000 mortgage. They learn absolutely nothing from history.
Me and my dad agree on most things, politically. But he still holds to Hanlon, while I've reached the point I no longer care if it's malice or stupidity, it needs to be punished as if it were malice. After all these "Oops, it was a mistake in our favor, lol" incidents, it's clear stupidity is the perfect disguise for malice.
What's the point of their intention if the result is the same? If you are so stupid you can accidentally convince people you are malicious, you deserve to be treated as if you are.
Hanlon's is a coward's excuse to never have to hold anyone accountable.

I'd say "malice" instead of greed, but sure. I no longer buy into Hanlon's Razor as a useful measuring stick.
