Nevada lawmakers threw a new state foreclosure requirement on lenders, putting an additional hurdle for banks to jump over. This boils down to which is more important: protecting homeowners who are behind on payments or promoting speedy recovery of the state’s housing market? This, from the Las Vegas Review-Journal:

I think we’re over-legislating the recovery.”
