Was it a mistake to ease regulations on the mortgage lending industry (over the last 15 years)? Afterall, it allowed many more Americans to qualify for home ownership.

A national authority on housing, homelessness, and foreclosure law, Alexander believes the time-tested policy of mortgage lending in the U.S. better served both our economy and the borrower.
