A Conversation with Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson

saintrambone Says:

Nov 5, 2007 - As a former FDIC bank examiner, I learned that crime syndicates in the federal government murder the innocent and inject informants and call them crazy if they can not kill us. I applaud all attacks against the regime and applaud the destruction of the regime in the United States. The federal government is shit waiting to be shot in the international head and flushed to shit town DC

Jan 22, 2008 - Just more of the same terror they`ve been prodding us with for 50 years.Drugs and War - instruments of our global prison system. Come on Christians - what would jesus do here?I doubt he`d keep dumping munitions on people in the desert.

Feb 15, 2008 - Portfolio Pollution_FIRREA helps lenders - not buyers. So much of the headlines today talk about the mortgage mess and how countless numbers of borrowers are nearing foreclosure. Sure, the government and Treasury Secretary Paulson have made efforts to curb the rising tide of foreclosures for all borrowers in financial trouble (not just sub-prime) and that's a great start.

quick1kungfu Says:

Feb 15, 2008 - But how in the world did housing prices rise to such an astronomical level in the first place? Who fell asleep at the wheel regarding over-inflated real estate appraisals? Did regulation created under the Financial Institution Reform, Recovery and Enforcement act (FIRREA) created after the Savings and Loan crisis do more to help lenders loan money and almost nothing to protect borrowers from overpaying - YES!

quick1kungfu Says:

Feb 15, 2008 - Were appraisers feeling pressure by lenders to support the 'target' price (aka loan amount) given to them in advance by the lending institution - YES!

Apr 13, 2008 - Interested in big business and big terror? Remember Elamir? The guy who owned a few HMOs and MRI centers in New Jersey? He was implicated in a sting operation - " Diamondback" - allegedly for shipping his institution's required cash reserves to foreign accounts, then to Osama & co. All charges were dropped when his attorney joined the jUSTICE dEPARTMENT. Who was his attorney? Michael Chertoff, now the Homeland Security Director.Can't you see the filth? Oh, how I DESPISE the ignorant!

Aug 8, 2008 - Paulson is a republican mouthpiece, and he should not be listened to... he, and the rest of the bush gang, should be arrested, tried and jailed or hung. The united states is dead. Buy a gun..

XConservative4LifeX Says:

Sep 8, 2008 - Bush WAS NEVER A CONSERVATIVE but a socialist. A conservative would never bail out wall street pirates and incompetents at the expense of the American tax payers. Thanks to this bail out King George, you have doubled the American national debt in one weekend. Also, Paulson & Bernanke are crooks along wiith the Democrats and Republicans on the board of Fannie and Freddie who are going to make millions of this. If you think McCain or Obama will save this country, you must be a complete idiot.

Xproletariatx Says:

Sep 19, 2008 - George bush is not a socialist. Youre missiong the whole point. The government bailouts are a response thats agreed upon on all sides of the spectrum, republican, democrat, whatever. It doesnt matter. Capitalism is in crisis right now, and all of the politicans want to fix it with taxpayer money. But they do it in order to preserve the dominance of capital. A socialist wouldnt seek taxpayer money to save wall street but would instead call for the overthrow of capitalism altogether.

Sep 22, 2008 - 28 years after the start of the extreme right, reagan revolution, the jig is up. This is a stick-up. The fox ain't in the henhouse, it's t-rex. Blame it on the dual income, overworked couple signing a rip-off loan. Go ahead. Blame it on the poor. The laissez-faire, deregulation of commercial finance products has given us hedge funds, swap loans, and derivitives. Bailout? Make a detailed list. We want their cars, summer homes, yachts, diamonds: bring all that shit back!

Sep 25, 2008 - What the hell have you been smoking?

mrundead Says:

Sep 25, 2008 - Bankers to the world? who the fuck does Paulson think he is? even back in the summer of 2007 the Treasury Secretary of the USA should've have the education and foresight to see that the US was in a serious financial decline.This is all lip service to a bunch of fakes in a posh NYC hotel.

jdisney Says:

Sep 30, 2008 - paulson belongs in jail .. along with bush ..pelosi is a sell out and should be voted out of office .. burn the ny banks starting withgoldman sachs

warp13 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - Henry Paulson was the biggest lobbists against net/capital rule. It was changed by a Bush appointed SEC Chairman and former Goldman Sachs employee Donaldson in 2004. That's when the problem really began. Fuld didn't dispute that Lehman was buying product as he called it, namely garbage loans from preditaory lenders like First national. They ALL knew EXACTLY what they wer doing and the ALL screwed AMERICA. Bush should be impeached, Paulson should resign.

warp13 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - Paulson is the biggest shark in the tank! He saves Goldman with a bail out, after trashing net capital regulations. Then Paulson puts a former Goldman Board of Directors member Edward Liddy in charge of AIG????? Wall Street IS running our treasury and trashing our country-Thanks Repulicans and thanks BUSH for Chairman Donaldson another Goldman player.
