Alternet has the article Meet 3 Master Manipulators of America’s Oligarchy: Financiers Stanley Druckenmiller, Pete Peterson and John Arnold form a trifecta of treachery.
We bring you profiles of three financiers who never made a useful thing in their lives, including one who helped bring you the Enron disaster. They are united in their efforts to blame ordinary people for Wall Street-driven economic woes and carve out another pound of your flesh for the rich. Money is no object in their quest.
I have known about Pete Peterson for quite a while, but I had not heard of the other two until now. What confuses the heck out of me is that I have a lot of respect for Simon Johnson, even though his resume shows a stint at the Peterson Foundation. Could it be that Johnson escaped that job unscathed?
