Geithner still running a train wreck

And no, not all the problems at Treasury are due to shortness of top staff. Rather, Geithner’s ad hoc management style is a major problem.

Problem No. 2 is his near-reflexive looking over his shoulder at the White House and Larry Summers about any time he makes a decision. That alone would probably cause a train wreck.

Yet another reason President Obama’s “government by czars” is itself a larger train wreck in the offing. As well as violating at least the spirit of the Constitution.
