It was Fannie Mae, the large semi-government housing lender, that was strong-armed into supporting sub-prime lending in a big way. Again for good reasons. This normalized sub-prime lending for others.

Not everything has an evil agenda behind it. Sometimes the reasons are fairly ordinary and boring.
