Jason Furman vs Steven Landsburg 3 and 4

In the third of the Los Angeles Times "DUST-UPs", Jason Furman and Steven E. Landsburg continue their debate with the question Why should Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae guarantee home loans bigger than $600,000? Does this increase the likelihood that public money will be used to bail out lenders?

The fourth "DUST-UP" considers the possible causes of the current slump in the US.
