Agreed they do not deserve a bailout(i never said they did)..but they also do not deserve the derision.

You become an accredited investor simply based on your net worth.There are no other criteria.Being accredited does not imply any level of financial knowledge.

The Madoff fraud,Bre-x,Conti Commodity,Enron,Worldcom,etc were all simply theft by deception,not a bad investment decision.

The victims of ALL the above are deserving of some sympathy,empathy,and compassion.
