7. "Seeking the power to do it is part of the process of doing it"
Edited on Wed Apr-01-09 01:00 PM by ProSense
So then Geithner is right? If he's planning to do this when he has the authorization, why is it worse?

Isn't that putting the accusation before the authority? What does Stiglitz want him to do right now when he has no authority (that is until that authority is granted)?

Treasury proposal




Edited for clarity.
