"Kashkari was a 35-year-old business school graduate from a suburb of Akron, Ohio, who had gone to Washington in 2006 to learn how government worked. Then came the recession, and through a freakish set of circumstances, mixing pluck, cataclysm and luck, he was appointed by Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson as the federal bailout chief.

Suddenly, he was in charge of $700 billion."

So this guy saw how screwed we were and ran for the woods to live off the grid.

Anyone read about him running around Bear Country without protection?

That's how I imagined the horror stories would be on trying to fix the mess that other's started. And that was a horror story.

Interesting read psijac, thanks for posting.
