All of them eat with real silver-ware. We use the plastic sporks that came with our 3.99 salad.

Politicians, Presidents, CEOs, CFOs, Magistrates, Movie stars, Business leaders, Bishops, Counts and cunts. All the same to me. Rich, cunning, and selfish bastards that they are.

The first will be last, and vice versa.
I’m proud NOT to have all I ever thought I needed or wanted.

Once word of this potential investigation leaked out ( and it most certainly did) every powerful ally of Madoff in Congress (i.e. possibly Schumer, Lautenberg and Israeli lobbyists) would work behind the scenes to scuttle it. Even the hint of an investigation would lead to serious embarrassment and loss to Jewish Charities and loss of credibility.

I’d wager big time that the powers in the SEC were told to cover this up. It is only because the market has collapsed was this Ponzi fraud uncovered.

The SEC does not now and never has had a free hand on regulation within its mandate. As an example even Arthur Levitt, who as SEC Chairman in the 90s attempted to revamp the audit/consult role of accounting firms. He had to buckle under pressure from the Senate Banking members and that led to Enron.

There are powerful people who will work to cover this up to protect themselves.

Until the excessive wealth generation is taken out of the system you will continue to see extremes like this one. Not only does the system support it. It looks the other way when it happens.
