Cramer: Housing Bill to Move Builders, Banks

The housing bill is a huge deal. I don't think people realize how big. Besides saving Fannie(FNM Quote) and Freddie(FRE Quote) through the big losses -- perhaps to the Promised Land where there will be stronger fees overwhelming charge-offs sometime in 2010? -- it will help eliminate the overhang of foreclosed homes.
