Bloomberg is suing to get the information, BTW.

They're one of a handful of news org's I still put value in.


Crony capitalism! This is outrageous.


Anybody can find the text of the response?

Here's the text of lawsuit (08-CV-9595) [PDF] http://people.bakersfield.com/file/document/339038/2/0/



Why of course it's all going to me. Me and Bernanke are bros, go way back, and he's hooking me up before we drive this titanic right into an iceberg.


Since this involves the use of public funds, isn't there a law requiring full disclosure of where they are going?


The FED is not a gov't entity so the laws might be slightly different in this case.


Amazingly no.
