Fatal admission! He was looking for a job "while we process the request for a certificate of divestiture." The job has to necessitate the CD pic.twitter.com/GcsFGP57mg

Umm, remember Hank Paulson? Think he wanted to run the Treasury? Or was it about the $400 million in stock he could cash in tax-free?

I know The Economist asked that question in an article, but I personally had the impression Sec. Paulson was in it for the public service.

Of course they all want the tax break. I would too. My point was it was not unique in this case. Wrong or right, ethically.

To be clear, I don't know if there IS a CD request except for what's reported in news. I don't want to create a false impression that I know

But there's a lot of information in the news about the deal that, if true, indicates a CD would be inappropriate.
