Sounds like the US government is already selling insurance. Just not to the public.

Of course they don't sell to the public. We haven't contributed enough ~~bribes~~ campaign donations to get their attention.

So this is the fed audit?

Honestly, I think we're way beyond that. If Citi failed, the chaos that would ensue is already risk on the public balance sheet. It's called systematic risk.

Now I do appreciate that Grayson is trying to follow the money. I think it ought to be public information what lies on public balance sheets.

More like a share holders conference I guess...

I'm liking Greyson more and more each day.

Per Mr. Greyson's words. That Citigroup gains 100% of profit if toxic assets sell well, but us US citizens get 90% debt, if those assets fail. Where can I get a deal like THAT for my student loans? Or my House? Or my car? Or me?!?!?!?!?

^ I believe the current requirement is that your financial collapse will inevitably lead to a greatly diminished campaign contribution volume for a majority of the members of the US house of representatives.
