“Global Financial Crisis” Taught by US Secretary of Treasury Timothy Geithner
- MrTonyD 11y agoGeithner advocated saving the big banks, and undermined any effort to help average people who couldn't pay their mortgages. That's why the "mortage relief" program was designed to not work. He represents the 1% who believe that wall-street is our real economy - and everyone else should just keep paying to support them in their endless quest for more money. I'd rather take a course from any of the economists who accurately described and predicted the problems - but they weren't the ones appointed to positions of power by either the Democrats or Republicans.
