I just don't like to see the government adding all the regulations and significant costs (those systems aren't cheap) as a knee jerk reaction to tragedies. 

I'm fine paying my fare share of taxes, but the government incentivizes us to do what it wants us to do - buy real estate, by giving us tax breaks.

Its a process and a government process at that so be prepared for that.

See the other posts above.Originally posted by @Carolyn Fuller:I find trying to slog my way through government regulations to be a bit overwhelming. 

Like the government did with physical gold in the thirties, and the Canadian government is doing now. 

I want to start a nonprofit eventually to help the poor in the USA & other countries, and I'm considering using my own money or receiving government funds instead of relying on donations from people unless they're just rich ****s.

Fannie and Freddie are the government sponsored enterprises- conventional loans are underwritten to their guidelines. 

The government does.
