Timothy Geithner: Inside Traitor or Fox Guarding the Hen House
When are charges going to be brought against Geithner? I mean seriously folks...
Early on we know that he helped AIG keep their bonuses and we also know he doesn't have a clue on the current economy. Many feel he should have been forced to resign over just those two issues.
We find out today that An arm of the Federal Reserve, then led by now-Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, told bailed-out insurance giant AIG to withhold key details from the public about overpayments that put billions of extra tax dollars in the coffers of major Wall Street firms, most notably Goldman Sachs.
Why do we allow people who work in the industry at high level positions to assume high level positions in government? This is an obvious conflict of interest if not subversion of the office by outside corporations. In days of old they would have called it, 'The fox guarding the hen house.'
Tim Geithner must be made an example of. Bring him up on charges of insider trading, collusion to commit fraud, suppression of evidence, you name it... charge this common thief with the whole book for all I care. He needs to go to jail.
