A Correction.

When I quoted Dave Dayen on the HAMP foreclosure fiasco, I suggested that he was rather softer on the banks than I was, because he implied incompetence and timidity, rather than a conscious decision to f%$# homeowners.

Well, he posted a response, and stated quite clearly that he did, "think it was deliberate, and have said it plenty."

My apologies both to him and my reader(s).
