Why You Care is trying to go to Treasury Interim Assistant Secretary for Financial Stability Neel Kashkari's morning meeting and discussion about the financial rescue plan. Mr. Kashkari as you will recall is in charge of the $700 billion package at Treasury which Congress approved, and President Bush signed into law. What's that mean?
It means Mr. Kashkari is the man who will ultimate figure out how to buy, sell, hold all the problem assets that are creating the banking industry's acid reflux - which in turn made the economy ill.
Why You Care will report back after the breakfast meeting.

Why You Care...
In order to understand how the tug of war over money, power and land between Capitol Hill and Wall Street impacts your life you MUST understand the business pages.

This is our journalistic and academic effort to explain why you care about the complexities of Washington and Wall Street by highlighting solid reporting and decoding the business pages along the way.
