Governments Double Edge Sword

Regarding the Federal Goernments FHA Secure Program 

A double edge sword for the gov.
if they do nothing and the economy foils (which I am a big fan of free market playing itself out) then more money could be lost for everyone.

if the gov helps, and the economy moves along then everyone has opportunity to make more money. I don't think the gov is trying to bail out a particular sector as much as they are trying to keep an environment for commerce. although that sector will benefit from that effort.

the more commerce the more taxes collected everyone wins.
there is such an interdependency that sometimes it has to be done.
