Amazing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,


All by design...............Didn't see any of the fannie freddie homes they NOW own........

The government had achieved savings of $5.6 billion as of the end of the first quarter, according to the Office of Management and Budget, which said agencies are on track to add several billion more in savings by the end of the fiscal year.

Why is the government so keen to sell its real estate?

The federal government owns 1.1 million real estate assets, a category that includes land, buildings and structures.

The roster runs the full range: Lighthouses. Empty buildings that are no longer used. Big plots of land that once housed government depots. And many structures are underused, outdated or abandoned.

President Obama has made the consolidation and sale of federal property a priority, and has directed agencies to achieve $8 billion in savings by the end of the fiscal year.
