Forbes lists The World's 100 Most Powerful Women

I can't believe Sheila Bair made No. 2. This fast talking meidel amuses me. Forbes.com: The World's 100 Most Powerful Women. I think the flaw in the list is that they assign you the assets you control. So Sheila has control of the Federal US assets and this propels her to the top, while in reality she has no that much influence. Similarly Oprah is down the list because they don’t make distinction between private and assets under your control. This is not “the richest list”. For same reasons Hillary is down the list because NY State GDP is no match to Sheila's Federal Reserve. For same reason corporate CEOs move to the top of the list on the strength of the controlled assets.
