I think the point is that the market is inflated beyond all reasonable expectations.

I don't think the governments proposal is a good solution. I think the industry is going to deflate naturally. The problem is, if interest rates are high and people are paying interest on a loan that far exceeds the value of the property, that's not good for anyone except maybe the banks, although they still lose money in many cases.
