IU Member Michael Ciklin on Forensic Analysis of Conservatorship of GSEsInvestors Unite member Michael Ciklin, who is a Princeton graduate and holds a joint JD, MBA, MRE from University of Florida, joins Executive Director Tim Pagliara to discuss the findings from a Special Report he and fellow Investors Unite member Adam Spittler published, which is a forensic look at the bailout of Fannie Mae and subsequent conservatorship and Net Worth Sweep of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Ciklin explains some of their findings, including the assertion that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were not in need of a bailout, and gives his take on recent developments, including the government’s attempts to withhold documents relating to the Sweep and Dr. Jerome Corsi’s series of stories that call in to question the idea that the Obama Administration used proceeds from the Sweep to circumvent Congressional prohibitions on spending on some elements of the Affordable Care Act.  00:17:00Investors Unite Podcastnohousing,government secrecy,Obama Administration,obamacare,GSEInvestors Unite Member Michael Ciklin discusses his forensic analysis of the bailout and conservatorship of Fannie Mae and Freddie Machttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/iupodcast/2017/04/13/ep-3-r-street-institute-senior-fellow-alex-pollock-on-housing-finance-reformFinancehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/iupodcast/2017/04/13/ep-3-r-street-institute-senior-fellow-alex-pollock-on-housing-finance-reform/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/iupodcast/2017/04/13/ep-3-r-street-institute-senior-fellow-alex-pollock-on-housing-finance-reformThu, 13 Apr 2017 13:30:00 GMTEp. 3 R Street Institute Senior Fellow Alex Pollock on Housing Finance ReformR Street Institute Distinguished Senior Fellow Alex Pollock joins IU Executive Director Tim Pagliara to discuss principles for housing finance policy, which he laid out in his recent study, "What’s next for U.S. housing finance?," including treating Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac like any other systemically important financial institution (SIFI). Previously, Pollock was a resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute from 2004 to 2015 and was president and chief executive officer of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago from 1991 to 2004.  00:21:00Investors Unite Podcastnohousing,Fannie Mae,Freddie Mac,GSE,FinanceR Street's Alex Pollock discusses seven principles for housing policy reform, including treating Fannie and Freddie like SIFIs.http://www.blogtalkradio.com/iupodcast/2017/03/17/ep-2-uva-law-professor-saikrishna-prakash-on-judge-sweeneys-march-7th-orderFinancehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/iupodcast/2017/03/17/ep-2-uva-law-professor-saikrishna-prakash-on-judge-sweeneys-march-7th-order/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/iupodcast/2017/03/17/ep-2-uva-law-professor-saikrishna-prakash-on-judge-sweeneys-march-7th-orderFri, 17 Mar 2017 13:00:00 GMTEp 2.
