Comment interjected at minute 5:37 not in transcript: "We had another example today as I waited to board the aircraft to come here, AIG it was reported, is now going to have all of their credit defaults swaps backstopped by the US government. That is another 300 - 800 Billion Dollars effectively appropriated by the administration without a vote of Congress without any mention anywhere. And, oh, by the way, their stock went up by 40% last night after the market closed. Maybe a little insider trading involved in that as well."
