I'm on the side of the Individual Investor myself, though it's true that nobody complained about bonuses or stock options during the boom...

And frankly I did not expect this of WCOM, there were many other far more likely candidates, probably most of which will go unpunished in the end.

Even if I did manage to sell out my various holdings during 2000, I never held my nose and bought gold mining grief stocks, death stocks like MO, nor shorted the market, so I haven't exactly profited from the debacle. The sooner it's over the better.

I also have to add that the same regulators one might want overseeing what goes on in large publicly traded companies were the ones that scuttled the Sprint merger.
