Obviously his economic plans scare the hell out of me and now he picks a guy for treasury that doesn’t pay his taxes?!?!? [http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5hj1yF\_ptG-7vosxFrnx7fysb3IdgD95MULMO1](http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5hj1yF_ptG-7vosxFrnx7fysb3IdgD95MULMO1) With all of the other CRAZY news lately I think the sky may be falling on the USA. There I said it. Keep in mind Martha Stewart and Leona Helmsly went to fucking prison for what they did, but the biggest criminals of the world are running our banks and financial system. Don’t even get me started about what is going on in NY State. ---

If this guy is telling the truth about not knowing that he was supposed to pay those taxes and it was a honest mistake, then it would seem to me that he is not smart enough to be running the treasury department. If he is lying, then he is a thief and it does not seem too smart having a thief running the treasury department. ---

His mistake was a common one for people hired by international organizations and foreign embassies that don’t pay the employer share of Social Security taxes. The IRS estimated in 2006 that as many as half those employees had made tax-filing mistakes, and offered a group settlement to let them correct the errors. And this guy is much, much smarter than anyone that will post in this thread. ---

I am sure he has a very good reason for his pick… Probably something about how he hates america and wants to see our capitalist society in ruin by the time he is done would be my guess. ---

Now the People with Money in the Market thread, on the other hand… We will be affected, in a fucking great way. Obama’s economic team, Geithner included, are centrists and the best and brightest this country has to offer. ---

I get the feeling that no matter who Obama picks, you guys would trash it. Not that I agree with all of his picks. But given the author of this thread I better prepare myself for an onslaught of “bitching and whinning threads” from the loosers. Whats will be interesting to watch is to see how the democrats come out after this recession. If things look positive by 2010 get ready to see the implosion of the RNC. There was a good article on CNN about upcoming congressional seats that are up for grabs. If the Republicans loose them it will be basically a Democrat monopoly in gov’t.
