HJM,re:"aggressive...fraudulent"...And esay credit...Hey,
we're just ONE $UCKING BIG FAMILY or ONE BIG $UCKING
FAMILY.
If you have ANY grieveance, better air it out NOW, before
it is considered as 'terrorism propaganda'.
CONSPIRACY, anyone.
Here are QUICK FIXes that will be coming:
a. immediately, lower interest rate to 0%, like JAPAN.
Heck, do it better, the American style, -5%.
This will STIMULATE economy by pumping more money
anytime anyone spend more than they can afford.
the more you spend, the more you make. Beat that, JAPAN.

b. create new agency to supply money to buy stocks. With
quarrantee of payback.

c. Install trading limit trigger, any stock drop more than
.01% in an hour, automatically halt trading for 1 week.

d. track down the 'traitors' (this is a tough act to
accomplish, these guys are smart).

e. requires minimum standard on housing. >350K starter
home (housing projects included), with quarrante buyers
by Gov.

... please ... help to provide your cents.

USA...USA...USA...USA

>>A former top official of the Securities and Exchange Commission, speaking on condition of anonymity, recently estimated that as many as 20% of Silicon Valley companies used fraudulent accounting methods, while 50% to 70% used "aggressive accounting practices--whether legal or not is another question."<<

What did he say the % was for Seattle-based companies? :-)
