"Chinese assets are very safe," Geithner said in response to a question after a speech at Peking University, where he studied Chinese as a student in the 1980s.
His answer drew loud laughter from his student audience, reflecting scepticism in China about the wisdom of a developing country accumulating a vast stockpile of foreign reserves instead of spending the money to raise living standards at home.
There's no shortage of material when it comes to Turbotax Tim
I dont like this...what's he negotiating? The students are right....
Geithner offered U.S. backing for a higher-profile role for China in running global institutions including the IMF -- a controversial proposition since it raises the sensitive issue of reducing Europe's voting share in the global lender.

"The United States will fully support having China play a role in the principal cooperative arrangements that help shape the international system, a role that is commensurate with China's importance in the global economy," he said.
In words clearly intended to soothe Chinese concerns that its vibrant export economy might be targeted by U.S. lawmakers who are feeling pressure from soaring American joblessness, Geithner said the Obama administration would resist any such moves.
^^ Excellent... I will be putting links in Google Earth since that thread seeks to put the pieces together... it will become clear hopefully what he is attempting to do... (tries to resist name-calling threads or sensationalism for the moment )
How about working to reassure the American people of their "investments" and financial livelyhood rather than pandering and kowtowing to our new communist masters... And getting laughed at to boot... Way to go Turbo Timmy... Those Chinese students probably have a better understanding of our Constitution than TT.
Yet ANOTHER thread where wingnuts use a totalitarian nation's reaction to bash an American governmet official.
Do you see this??? The wingers have stooped so low they are asking us to take the advice of Communist totalitarian drone students....as if they have credibility?

Yeah, we should take a empty suit tax cheat's advice over Chinese *students*. I find the link between students and their totalitarian state of residence tenuous.

He is a member of the Obama administration after all. It's a prerequisite.
