I reserve the right to edit this post to update it with articles i have been accumulating...suffice to say I think this guy is a huge crook and is not acting in the best interests of the US...this picture summarizes my general view of the prick
short summary is here...
okay I am well pissed and gonna do serious write up later
but will you at least take a look at this chit and tell me that you still trust this guy...
1. AIG bullchit
The $150 billion in government aid consists of a $60 billion loan, a $40 billion preferred-stock investment and $50 billion in capital largely to purchase distressed assets which are to be placed into two separate financing entities.
on the assets
The first such vehicle is to be capitalized with $30 billion from the government and $5 billion from AIG. That money will be used to acquire the underlying securities with a face value of $70 billion that AIG agreed to insure with the credit default swaps. These securities, known as collateralized debt obligations, are thinly traded investments that include pools of loans. The vehicle will seek to acquire the securities from their trading partners on the CDS contracts for about 50 cents on the dollar.
SO YOU THINK IF THOSE CDO'S GO BAD GOV'T WILL FORCE AIG TO PAY OUT ON CDS----LMFAO
I HAVE A SUSPICION THAT MS JPM AND GS OWN SOME OF THOSE CDO'S
2. TAX CODE BULLCHIT
"Did the Treasury Department have the authority to do this? I think almost every tax expert would agree that the answer is no," said George K. Yin, the former chief of staff of the Joint Committee on Taxation, the nonpartisan congressional authority on taxes. "They basically repealed a 22-year-old law that Congress passed as a backdoor way of providing aid to banks."
The story of the obscure provision underscores what critics in Congress, academia and the legal profession warn are the dangers of the broad authority being exercised by Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson Jr. in addressing the financial crisis. Lawmakers are now looking at whether the new notice was introduced to benefit specific banks, as well as whether it inappropriately accelerated bank takeovers.

The Greatest Con of all times, it seems.
AIG and others will continue to get more and more, along with any other deadbeat that comes knockin'
This whole "Econ Crisis" is becoming like a Idiot with a credit card. Chances are extremely thin that "they" can spend their way out of it. The Piper must get paid!!!!!!
Lack of transparency on Bail Out Bill should be the easiest tell of, EVIL INSIDE. Too many stupid Peeps in this Country though......
Hope Bloomy wins in their FOIA battle.
Yeah me too...you dead on about idiot with Credit Card...I dont think they can spend their way out of it either...Leverage and debt load is the problem and all we are doing is adding more debt...we need to discharge some of this debt...but the gov't is sure trying like hell to spend their way out of it...it is sad...and something that no one is discussing is that money will have to come from somewhere to buy the treasuries to pay for these bailouts
does it come from equity markets, commodities, corporate bonds, money markets, emerging markets???
or do treasuries just moonshot in yield
Yeah...about those 10 year T's and shrinking yields affecting Pensions and annuities. Not good for those folks. Guess that bubble needs a poppin' soon enough.
