Yes, but only in extreme situations, and as long as it does not encourage irresponsible borrowing, and is not unfair to those who pay their mortgages.

 @B4N293Wanswered…1yr1Y

Yes, but it shouldn't come at the cost to the taxpayer, e.g. any financial assistance provided should be payed back in full. Restructuring home loans to give them longer to pay back the principal would be ideal. Financial education is something that I believe must be taught in schools from an early age, especially in the current economical times. The cost of living is ridiculous and financial freedom is near impossible to achieve thanks to years of greed.

They should provide it for a year or less, then stop. This way, if someone has fallen on tough times they can bounce back; if it's a pattern, they'll be foreclosed soon enough.

They should provide assistance but only to a limit. A loan that needs to be paid back is okay

Depends on circumstances. As long as the person can afford to pay back both the loan to the bank & government.
