I say hang the bastards. They are nothing but criminals who have robbed people of their retirements. It is really hard not to wish for evil or something catastrophic to befall them. I think we have finally shown to civilization that human greed can destroy any economic system, even ours.This has nothing to do with terrorism. Just plain and simple greed.

It seems that you have a dislike for Merrill Lynch.

on PBS tonight one poll result to question of do you think this is only a matter of few "bad apples", only 15% said yes.
McCain, must confess i like this fellow, on being advised there was closure on the McCain/Levin Options Expense bill spoke on the senate floor; basically saying "i have been in government long enough to tell you what we have here is called 'The Fix IS In', and i tell you who put the fix in, the technology companies, silicon valley.
But mind you this bill will come to vote, it will, sooner or later".
Daschle, yakety yakked that "o there was no fix, we just want the new independent oversight board to be created to advise us on this". The stopping of McCain came from BOTH the democrats and republicans. Max p.s. also another poll revealed 75% of people want jail for these blokes NOW. But this is where the damned existence of the Safe Harbor Law comes in, that law would have to be voted out of existence; the protection of this law must be voted out of existence and to be retro-active,and i don't know if that is legally possible, to make it retro-active, so these criminals lose their protection provided by the Safe Harbor act.
Bush is getting the message enough such that he has evidently advised he will sign whatever bill he gets sent.
And it is apparent for the moment, the corporation's mascot,Representative Oxley, is being pushed out of the way. Max
