No fannie and freddie were not the cause of this, the real causes were excessively low interest rates, lax regulations, and really easy credit,which was only made worse by banks wanting to take advantage of the housing market and making it even easier for people to obtain money, as well as the classic overleveraging and speculation, government wasn't the main driver of this, except maybe the fed, which under greenspan especially, kept interest rates really low too long
