That’s kinda funny. Years ago when I was in Caserta area of Italy, the firemen would deliberately set controlled fires to the hillsides.
It wasn’t to control vegetation so much as to stay gainfully employed.
LOL.

Fire Benanke and lets get on with auditing the Fed. Why does Bernanke continue to stonewall requests for documents related to the AIG bailout? Why was AIG given 100% on the dollar for what was worth less then 50%? Too much easy money being dispensed at the cost of taxpayers. Time for the facts to be revealed. Time to Audit the Fed.

I think Greenspan was the arsonist, Bernanke was among the group holding the matches and the gas can.
