In an article discussing a proposal to have the Federal Housing Authority buy up tens of billions of dollars worth of bad subprime loans, the WSJ did not include the views of a single person who thought this was a bad idea. Isn't there anyone in the WSJ's Rolodex who thinks that raising taxes on nurses and firefighters to give money to millionaire and billionaire bankers is not a good idea?
