The "Tennis Mafia" and US Economic Policy
According to Bloomberg TV, Alan Krueger of Princeton, an ex-Treasury official, who used to play tennis with Larry Summers and Tim Geithner, "part of the Tennis Mafia," is going to be appointed White House Chief Economist. Also, according to the Bloomberg report, both Krueger and Gene Sperling, head of Obama's Economic Council, "took money from Goldman Sachs when they went to the private sector from their previous jobs with the govt." They would soon be back together taking money from the US taxpayers. It is a nice cozy world for those who get the right to manipulate the US economy. There is lot of truth in Government Sachs.
Robert Rubin of Goldman Sachs, Treasury Secretary under Clinton, also used to play tennis with Greenspan, regularly, to let Greenspan know what he needs to do, or not to do, to get reappointed. You got to play ball!
There is more than just playing tennis that seems to be involved here. Rather than the Mafia it is more like being blessed by a cabal. Those who are not blessed are not chosen for these jobs.
