“The Fed isn’t involved in preventing insider trading.”

So the Fed is allowed to give insider tips ahead of time to cronies? That’s legal?

“He gave [Sachs] a loan? You have any proof?”

I remember that report clearly. It infuriated me. But it’s not easy to dig that far back in google. It’s over ten years ago.

“Paulson is convinced that Russia and China orchestrated the meltdown. That’s more significant, don’t you think? You bet, if you can prove it.”

It’s all over the internet. Here are the links again:

Paulson: Russia and China plotted an economic meltdown

“[Oil In Brazil] That proves Soros was involved in Kanjorski’s imaginary run?”

I never said I could prove that Soros was involved. I said “if”. Soros is a slippery one, but this is his MO.

As for your last question, the report is linked.

No.

No. And just what inside tips are you imagining? Be specific.

I remember that report clearly.

I never heard such a report.

Russia trying to get China to sell some Fannie Mae bonds cause the meltdown? LOL!

Even if China and Russia sold some bonds, to imagine that was the cause of the crisis is funny.

I never said I could prove that Soros was involved.

You have a whole lot of can't proves in your claims, don't you?

"Paulson: Russia and China plotted an economic meltdown"

It's just another red herring in the trail. The Democrats killed the regulation that would have prevented this from happening more than ten years before the crash. The Bush administration & congress kicked around the idea to do something about it long before the crash but Barney Frank & Chris Dodd blocked it. Alan Greenspan warned of a housing turn around back in 2005-06. He did it cautiously, just like times before when he warned of a housing turn around in the early 90's. The 1990's blip on the screen was handled so it didn't hit real hard. Wild speculation resulted in too many homes on the market. Competition resulted in topping out the market. Speculators were not seeing the profits they had anticipated back from 2006 to 2008. So they got caught holding onto maturing ARMs. So they began to walk away from the bad investments. The Russians had nothing to do with the crash. The government, wall street, and the banks got caught holding the bag. So they past the buck to the taxpayer. Now we have you saying it was the Russians. It's time to come clean. You work in the White House basement, right?
