         time AIG was rescued.   In an FCIC hearing, Goldman CFO David Viniar said that
         those counterparties had posted collateral. 
           Goldman also argued that the  billion of CDS protection that it purchased
         from AIG was part of Goldman’s “matched book,” meaning that Goldman sold 
         billion in offsetting protection to its own clients; it provided information to the FCIC
         indicating that the  billion received from Maiden Lane III was entirely paid to its
         clients.   Without the federal assistance, Goldman would have had to find the 
         billion some other way.
