PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE RALPH NADER TO CALL OUT PAULSON
Who: Ralph Nader
What: Ralph Nader will issue a statement to Hank Paulson asking him to give 25% of his own money from the fortune he made on Wall Street ($150 million) to help bailout his comrades
When: 1.30 pm - 2.00 pm
Where: In front of the Treasury Building, 1500 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC
Today, October 14 at 1:30pm in front of the Treasury Building Ralph Nader will tell Wall Street success Hank Paulson: "Bail out your buddies, give 25% of your Wall Street fortune to your comrades." Secretary Paulson admitted that many Americans did not feel the benefits of economic expansion because of the rising costs of energy, which can be attributed to Paulson’s speculating buddies on Wall Street. Why then should the citizens at-large in the United States be the only saviors of Wall Street? Secretary Paulson, Wall Street crony, will be called on to help.
