When we've seen reform of any sort, (and I have my doubts that we'll see any such thing, partially because of the Obama administration's tactical miscalculations) we can debate what all of this means. Fai de bèn a Bertrand, te lou rendra en cagant
I'm certainly not as impressed as you seem to be of his current financial reforms proposals. Geithner being against them isn't enough for me to be for them (though it is a good sign.) In fact though, very few people are impressed, and if you can link to an independent, favorable review of what is currently proposed, I'd surely like to see it.
He may have wanted to be a mild reformer but, if that's all he is about now, he will be a failed President like Clinton was. And, he won't have the magic of a bubble market to cover up the mess like Clinton had. Fai de bèn a Bertrand, te lou rendra en cagant
