Top Treasury posts stay empty in financial crisis

The Washington Times reports:

Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner is trying to lead the U.S. economy out of its doldrums with - figuratively - one arm tied behind his back: Almost nine months after the Obama administration took power, more than half of the 33 highest-level Treasury Department posts are still vacant.

Makes you wonder whether you need all those government workers if they can get by for nine months without them.
