The World Finance Crisis&the American Mission - The New York Review of Books i don't agree with every point taibbi makes in this article, but the treasury department, the fed, and the president's economic advisors have way too many associations with goldman sachs. here's taibbi's take on this issue, and in typical taibbi fashion, he's pretty graphic with the vampire parasite imagery. fta:
