### Comment:
When you have an influx of capital, prices rise. When you have an influx of capital sponsored by government programs and adjusted default terms, you can leave behind the 'free market' related arguments because you just abandoned a 'free market.' The whole point of those programs is to manufacture demand. 
  
 Perhaps we are debating semantics because I view the housing market programs in the same light.

### REPLY:
Yeah i feel like we are on the same page as far as it destroys the free market, however, just because the government is willing to give me a loan to pursue my masters degree doesn't mean I care to do it, therefore my demand for it won't exist no matter what backing the government provides, which was the point xarfi was making.
