"Deep in an article today on the government's bailout of AIG, The New York Times cites sources saying that the Treasury Department's "point man" on AIG, Don Jester, was a former Goldman Sachs employee who owned stock in the bank even as he was making decisions on the bailout that ultimately channeled billions of taxpayer dollars to Goldman."

I am getting real tired of statements like,"This was not about the banks." It's been about the banks from day one. Don't even get me started on this watered down 'Reform' that the Republicans have managed to stop from really reforming anything. The second dip is looming & business & control at the megabanks remains just where they want it. Courtesy of their private political party, the Republicans. Permalink
