Fannie Mae ( OTCQB:FNMA ) and Freddie Mac ( OTCQB:FMCC ) are two companies in conservatorship where the government has been taking all of their money since 2008. Mark Calabria wrote a paper as part of the Cato institute arguing that the government has broken the law. He has also pointed out that as a he wrote HERA, that government support was intended to be debt and as such a never ending conservatorship like this wouldn't have been possible. This conservatorship is 10 years old and counting. It will either end in receivership or the companies exiting after FHFA declares that they are adequately capitalized.
