A Citigroup restructuring plan, and bank restructuring plans that were never developed by Treasury Secretary Geithner for President Obama
01/02/2009
Ron Suskind documents the making of key economic decisions in the Obama White House from 700 hours of interviews in his new book released in Sept 2011: "Confidence Men: the Obama White House, Wall Street and the Education of a President." In the book he says Obama asked Geithner to develop a plan for restructuring Citigroup after the bailout of Citi. A month later he followed up in a meeting, and was told by Romer at a meeting Geithner did not atttend, that no plan had been developed. The President's response was "it better be." Geithner says he was asked to do so but "fortunately there was never a need to put them in place."

Debating Dodd-Frank: Is 'Too Big to Fail' Gone?
Wall Street Journal 07/21/2011
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
