johnald128says...from wiki:
; ...Beginning in 2005, it was alleged that Paul Wolfowitz, President of the World Bank, used his position to influence a pay and grade increase for his partner, Shaha Riza. When Wolfowitz was appointed, Shaha Riza had to leave the bank and was allocated to the State Department, working in the office of Liz Cheney, daughter of Dick Cheney. For more details see Wolfowitz Scandal.
The World Bank head of "Institutional Integrity" department is Suzanne Folsom. She is the wife of George Folsom who is the President of the International Republican Institute and a personal friend of Paul Wolfowitz. According to the Financial Times her appointment as "a person close to Mr Wolfowitz, and with a political background...to a unit that was seen as independent of the president's office since it was set up in 2001" was met with concern by some senior staff. Wolfowitz's efforts are seen by some senior staff to have led to "a lack of consultation by Mr Wolfowitz's advisers, and an atmosphere of suspicion.'
and this is what controls the world economy. sounds like a soap opera.
