When reading/hearing about all the could have, should have, would haves of the economic crisis in the US I was wondering if anyone would once more bring up Brooksley E. Born.
She's the woman on the left, once on Clinton's short list for Attorney General's office had a meeting with the gentlemen on the right in the picture ten years ago and went on something of a one woman crusade for more regulation. Everyone in a suit (and mostly with a dick) opposed her, including the "musketeers" on the front of TIME magazine. I urge you to particularly look up Mr. Greenspan in the middle, an old Reagan man who had been a key man in deregulation and in many other Wall Street formative deals over the last 2 decades.
Articles about it in The Washington Post and The New York Times
Born has refused interviews, leaving her opponents to explain themselves as best they can. Very gracious woman indeed.
Well, at least they finally wrote some more about her in the media.
