"Robert Scheer, Op-Ed: “Can we all agree that a $1 billion swindle represents a lot of money, and the fact that Citigroup agreed last week to pay a $285 million fine to settle SEC charges for “misleading investors” demonstrates a damning admission of culpability? So why has Robert Rubin, the onetime treasury secretary who went on to become Citigroup chairman during the time of the corporation’s financial shenanigans, never been held accountable for this and other deep damage done to the U.S. economy on his watch?”

Rubin’s tenure atop the world of high fi­nance began when he was co-chair­man of Gold­man Sachs, be­fore he be­came Bill Clin­ton’s trea­sury sec­re­tary and pushed through the re­ver­sal of the Glass-Stea­gall Act, an ac­tion that le­gal­ized the for­ma­tion of Cit­i­group and other “too big to fail” bank­ing con­glom­er­ates.

Rubin’s de­struc­tive im­pact on the econ­omy in en­abling these giant cor­po­rate banks to run amok was far greater than that of swindler Bernard Mad­off, who sits in prison under a 150-year sen­tence while Rubin sits on the Har­vard Board of Over­seers, as chair­man of the Coun­cil on For­eign Re­la­tions and as a leader of the Brook­ings In­sti­tu­tion’s Hamil­ton Pro­ject.

Rubin was re­warded for his ef­forts on be­half of Cit­i­group with a top job as chair­man of the bank’s ex­ec­u­tive com­mit­tee and at least $126 mil­lion in com­pen­sa­tion. That was “com­pen­sa­tion” for steer­ing the bank to the point of a bank­ruptcy avoided only by a $45 bil­lion tax­payer bailout and a fur­ther guar­an­tee of $300 bil­lion of the bank’s toxic as­sets.
