Tim Geithner: “When Tim Geithner made his plan -- announced his plan to save the banks and more or less he didn't have a plan.”

The things that are burdening the economy, making growth weaker are things that only Congress can solve.

Those--the cuts are designed to starve those agencies of the ability--deny them the ability to enforce a set of basic, sensible protections for consumers and investors.

we have suggested that the burden for the revenues that would have to come on the individual side should fall on the most fortunate 2 percent of Americans through an increase in the effective tax rate on those individuals.

It's very important to future economic growth. There is no alternative to doing that.
