Over at Downsizing Government, we focused on the following issues this week:

• Remember what happened when the government decided the “underserved” needed access to “affordable” housing? Now it says the “underbanked” need access to more “affordable” credit. Uh‐​oh.
• Congressional logrolling — literally.
• President Obama plans to spend our way into more debt.
• Another day brings another example of federal health care fraud.
• “The government has become an elite island of overcompensated administrators immune from the competitive job realities of average families.”
