(Just who is going to be responsible for overseeing where our bailout money goes should be of interest. Just how many of Paulson's Goldman Sachs buddies are going to be in charge of the trough? And keep your eyes open to see who gets to manage the money -- the privilege and associated management fees are doled out by no-bid contract, of course. - promoted by Jay Stevens)
Neel Kashkari is the new interim head of the Department of Financial Stability (yes, that's its name). He's 35 years old, senior advisor to Paulson at Dept of Treasury since 2006 (and senior advisor at ATF?), former Goldman-Sachs vp and protégé of Paulson, worked on the bailout bill "until 4 am" (for the six months prior to it becoming, umm, necessary), $2000 political contribution to Bush/Cheney '04, wife Minal works for defense contractor Lockheed Martin.
Congress would have to approve full appointment, so expect to learn a bit more about Mr. K in the near future. Seems like an appropriate inquiry... |
