Participant[quote=Rich Toscano]I have confidence in him to funnel taxpayer money to the financial industry at every opportunity, to continually misdiagnose the nature of our ongoing financial troubles, and to help lead us blindly into a US sovereign debt crisis.
He appears to be an elf, so depending one whether I’m reading Tolkien or eating Pecan Sandies, I’m confident in either his archery or baking skills.
Other than that, not so much.[/quote]
[quote=Arraya]Giethner will be raking in millions in a few years at some big bank. His diagnoses in maximizing is own personal self-interest, just may turn out to be spot on. Of course, its contingent on the whole shit house not going up in flames[/quote]
I agree with these (except the elf part. LOL).
He’s a tool of big finance. He’s going to cash in at some point and rejoin the big finance guys.
Until then – he’s guaranteeing his spot at the table by making sure that every action the government takes increases profits for the financial industry and the banksters.

GuestSo everybody hates Geithner. An easy position to take.
Could be worse. At least he’s not Andrew Mellon.
So let’s look at the situation in the real world, i.e. in the context of the available alternatives (often more useful than than echoing talking points or mocking a person’s appearance.)
So, who would be a better choice?
