The Econlit abstract of this book begins: "Argues that, in responding to the financial crisis that began in 2007, the US government violated the law and was able to gain control over AIG, the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) early in the critical stage of the crisis—but it did so in the public interest."
