Nationally, the idea is similar - pushing back principal payments, not forgiving them entirely, is the solution trumpeted by the FDIC. That seems fairer: telling people that they can get a break now, but will eventually have to pay may alleviate qualms about handing out free rides. Or it may just be dooming us to have this conversation all over again. Unfortunately, without good data on what has worked so far, it's remarkably difficult to determine what to do going forward.
