Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) says people are running out of trust and patience
Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) at the Senate Budget Committee today asked witnesses Simon Johnson, professor at the Massachusetts, Brad Setser, fellow for geoeconomics and Tim Adams, managing director of The Lindsey Group, if they thought the first $350 billion bailout fund was spent wisely and Adams stated that the money should have been used for what it was supposed to be for. Graham agreed and said “People are running out of trust and patience with us up here.”
