From Paulson's proposal:

Sec. 8. Review.

Decisions by the Secretary pursuant to the authority of this Act are non-reviewable and committed to agency discretion, and may not be reviewed by any court of law or any administrative agency.

Paulson today:



If Paulson really wants transparency, give us a website, updated daily, with the details of all transactions!
