Secretary Wolfowitz: Visionary @ World Bank

Fire of Liberty

Amity Shlaes has a good column on the nomination of Paul Wolfowitz to the World Bank. She notes that Secretary Wolfowitz will provide a new found breath of life into an institute that has devoted more time to the environment and badmouthing corporations. With Wolfowitz at the helm , Shlaes reminds the reader that they will see the Secretary redirect the World Bank back to its the main job which is fighting poverty. Instead of getting stuck in the minutia of the various World causes, one should expect the new president to devote more time towards promoting the ideas entrepreneurialism, grants and various other concepts of development that are workable. With his past history, Secretary Wolfowitz is a proven diplomat who gets things done when given the chance. Just think, someone who gets things done in a Worldly institute like the World Bank. Mr. Shlaes notes that Secretary Wolfowitz as well as Secretary Bolton will prove their mettle and garner considerable support from the US Congress because they are will to yell stop in these World institutions and help right their courses. Expect great things from these great men.
