SocraticGadfly: Eff you, Ben Bernanke

Eff you, Ben Bernanke

Bailing out AIG with a blank check.

You have no guarantee its assets will be sold off in “an orderly fashion” OR at enough value to repay the $85 billion loan.

This comes AFTER the NY Fed repaid two JP Morgan loans to Lehman Brothers.

It’s times like this that, as nutbar as I know goldbug libertarians are, that I think they have half a point. More of a point than The Worst Fed Head Since Greenspan.
