 Eclectic thinking on politics, policy and more 12/8/08Great But Late
Great piece yesterday by the talented NYTer Gretchen Morgenson on the corruption of the ratings agencies and how this helped fuel our current woes. Greed ruins yet another elite institution supposedly looking out for the public. Just one question -- why couldn't this piece have run in 2005, when it might have helped prevent today's mess?
