Alan Greenspan
Alan Greenspan, has got a something off his chest, and felt the need to say sorry.
Only an arrogant conservative can half heartledly apologize for admitting markets are flawed and now, he has made his big bucks, can look at himself in the mirror.
People threw John Edwards and Eliot Spitzer under the bus for their own personal failings, but compared to Greenspan, they are just naughty little boys.
When Bill Clinton won in 1992, economic policy was transferred to Greenspan, and he basically ran the show for two terms. People forget, that middle class tax cuts and trainig courses where thrown overboard, in the name of fiscal stability, yet when W was judically appointed into the white house, the deficit and debt policies of 80's where given the green light.
If Greenspan wanted to truly say sorry, he needs to go on a national tour, and press the flesh.
Somehow, I don't see him encountering the homeless, the veteran and the senior who have been kicked to the curb, in order to justify that market forces really work.
The really problem with market forces, is that you can never equate what greed really does to a people, and the allure of a quick buck.
