That translates into taxpayers being out of the $3-plus billion in financing the Obama administration provided to the ailing automobile giant to keep operations afloat, as well as a [...]

President Barack Obama has essentially agreed to partner with private investors in his latest bid to rid a near trillion dollars worth of toxic assets from the books of our nation’s banks.

Barack Obama has already started staffing in anticipation and recognition of his transition to power.
