I lifted this sprawling sentence from an article on Robert Rubin, Citigroup’s long-time advisor with a mythological reputaion, in today’s Sunday Business section:
At the Treasury Department, Mr. Rubin threaded a moderate stance on the always-controversial issue of market regulation, navigating between conservative free marketeers like Mr. Greenspan who wanted to streamline regulation and more liberal advocates demanding tighter monitoring of the securities industry.
Would that happen to be the same kind of “streamlined regulation” that got us into this colossal credit crunch? And why do liberal advocates ‘demand’ tighter monitoring while Greenspan gets off by merely ‘wanting’ ’streamlining’?
Read carefully enough and you’ll find that any stereotype is untrue.
