The Wall Street Journal disclosed the names of the banks who got some $50 billion of the AIG bailout money. And as some suspected, Goldman Sachs was among the biggest recipients ($6 billion).

This should be a concern because Goldman got that money from *tada!* ex-US Treasury Secretary, Hank Paulson, who is our celebrity 'HedgeFund MONSTER!", who was a former Goldman CEO and held plenty of its stock. Was using bailout money to bail himself out!?

Here are the others (including 10 European banks):

    * Deutsche Bank
    * Merrill Lynch
    * Société Générale
    * Calyon
    * Barclays
    * Rabobank
    * Danske
    * HSBC
    * Royal Bank of Scotland
    * Banco Santander
    * Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS)
    * Wachovia
    * Bank of America (NYSE: BAC)
    * Lloyds Banking Group

AIG bailout | AIG crash | AIG bankruptcy | Hank Paulson | Goldman Sachs
