Sachs and Sachs of Gold[man].
CWD and I have occasionally debated whether Timothy Geithner is entitled to any benefit of the doubt, or if he should just be dismissed as a self-interested toady for the financial industry. They say "Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by stupidity", after all. (Even smart people can be stupid on certain occasions or certain subjects.)
But it looks like CWD was right, and Geithner's motivations have always been to advance the cause of avarice.
Now if we can get rid of both him and Bernanke and get some real reform . . . oh wait - rampant optimism is your bag. : )
