On TARP 2.0, or whatever the hell you want to call it, on deeply and honestly addressing the problems of toxic financial institutions, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and economic butthole surfer czar Larry Summers aren’t “dithering,” as Paul Krugman says.
No, far worse.
They’re deliberately stalling.
“Dithering” implies they have a plan, but they’re not comfortable with it.
“Stalling” means they know what the plan should be, and they’re QUITE uncomfortable with it.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
