Matt Taibbi, Jane Hamsher, and Robert Johnson: Should Geithner Go?
Why is the AIG bailout so infuriating? And what does Geithner mean when he says the company is too big to fail? Well, it has a lot to do with Goldman Sachs and with the consolidation of power in Washington. The real takeover, Matt Taibbi writes in Rolling Stone, has more to do with power than money.
Jane Hamsher of Firedoglake, Robert Johnson, former managing director of Soros Funds Management, and Matt Taibbi a contributing editor at Rolling Stone on the takeover of Washington. If you were pissed off before, well, brace yourself.
