I know who I don't want it to be. There has been speculation about the New York Mayor Bloomberg.
NO !
There is something that really bothers me about Michael Bloomberg. I know they love him in NYC. But, what else is new? Wall Street would love the tenth richest millionaire in the USA as Mayor.
Michael Bloomberg is known to have 'lobbied' Goldman Sachs as Mayor for donations for this and that for the city or whatever. Nothing radical or illegal about that.
However.
It is more than curious as to how he managed to come away from the Global Economic Crash of the Century without a scratch.
...In March 2009, Forbes reported (click here) Michael Bloomberg's wealth at $16 billion, a gain of $4.5 billion since the previous year, which makes him one of the most successful billionaires in the United States during the recession, and a person enjoying the world's biggest increase in wealth in 2009....
No one finds that curious?
Well, I do. A Mayor, of which I am assuming his holdings are in 'trust' while he is in office, escalates his worth during the worst financial collapse of the 21st Century.
He is welcome to his mony, but, his close affiliation with the company where the Former US Treasury Paulson resides is more than interesting. I don't trust his motives. He is Wall Street, not Main Street and we don't need that influence in the Executive Branch any more than it is today.
