I imagine most of Hank Paulson's private policy conversations revolved around devious new schemes to funnel more billion dollar backdoor bailouts to Goldman Sachs.

Was this downvoted for conspiracy theory-ing or because an actual majority of Hank Paulson's private discussions weren't really about how to steal money? I agree that Paulson couldn't have spent a majority of the time discussing how to funnel money to his friends and comrades, but it seems reasonably well established that some of the financial meltdown conspiracy theories are true.
