Citi's plan is the same as AIG's: Go directly to their buddy Paulson. They get lots more money, won't have to pay it back, and avoid almost all scrutiny. The Citi and AIG CEO's/boards are probably laughing at how the automakers are getting so much flack for a rather paltry $25B, and a loan no less. Stupid automakers don't know how to play the game. The bankers really are very good. They have the public and Congress whining so much about the $25B loan for the automakers that almost no one is even noticing the Treasury/Fed giving away much larger amounts right and left. It's both amusing and pathetic at the same time. PT Barnum would have really enjoyed this.
