No he should not resign because remember he need to fix the main street.
However, before fixing the main street, he has to fix the Wall Street first.
American people need to be patient.

Karl- Do you have any concern for our future? Politics will have a direct impact on our future and ability to make money. Selfish you are.

Great piece Chuck. This guy is as crooked as they come. I would not be surprised if he has ties to the Mafia as well. Or is Wall Street really the “New” Mafia?
I was somewhat dismayed at the very tennor Mr. Geithner used during the testimony. While Geithner mentioned that big firms will be the only ones to pay fees which seems like penance, http://finance.yahoo.com/news/US-Panel-sets-fees-for-big-apf-810733724.html?x=0&sec=topStories&pos=main&asset=&ccode= , I fear it may not be too far off when individual investors and traders will be taxed on trades as well.
Introduced by Congressman Peter DeFazio, H.R. 1068, the “Let Wall Street Pay for Wall Street’s Bailout Act of 2009.” The bill suggests imposing a .25% transaction tax on the “sale and purchase of financial instruments”

Please God let this never come to pass. Amen.
