Thoughts on Geithner, AIG, the Fed, and Tax Cuts

Unpopular as he may be, Treasury man Tim Geithner did a fine job yesterday defending the government rescues of last fall—including AIG. Geithner fought back, and I rather liked it. Nobody likes government bailouts, least of all me. But they were a necessity at the time. The world was on the brink. But we are healing now. It's time to move on and get over it. So I'm going to defend Geithner, as unpopular as that may be.
