I read that about Rubin but somehow,it didn't jive. Why did he give up a lucrative position and give up millions upon millions of dollars to take the position in the adminstration? It would seem that the USA has to help out its neighbors and potential consumers, especially since the world might start splintering into a big three. I do think his buddies at Goldman Sachs had a huge benefit since they know how he thinks and probably can predict his policies and invest accordingly. Also the bailout worked there, where many thing the Korean bailout will fail. (just read in the Times that the reason people are so concerned about the chicken virus is that a flu in the early part of the century killed 21 million..eeks) Who knows many the internet will be a vehicle where third parties who don't have the big money supporters can change politics in the future.
