ArringtonGate, Goldman Sachs and ‘Relative Conflict’
- Posted by Howard

The blogosphere is buzzing over the ‘conflicts’ of Mike Arrington starting a $20 million fund and being the voice of TechCrunch.
The only happy person seems to be Goldman Sachs, who has snuck in another executive to a role in the government.
Her pay the last few years $57 million. She ran Goldman Sachs Asset Management so I would love to know how much she made from funds allocating to Madoff during her tenure.
Mike will put $20 million to work creating thousands of jobs.
Eileen will put her money in US treasuries and help the economy shrink.
The SEC will continue to suck balls.
Personally, I would like to see Arrington running the SEC and Eileen put up $20 million for my new fund which will buy The Chinese Yuan and short $AOL.
Infuriating times.
