Slightly OT,
I've been telling friends for the past 18 months the same story. In 10 or 15 years, when we find out ALL the stuff that has been going on in the background, with respect to Bear/Lehman/GS/JPM, etc..., that people will be shocked, outraged and furious. It will all be water under the bridge at that point, so the details will be complete and, quite simply, unbelievable. That the people at the top, running and regulating the largest equity markets in the US, would be using their position to eliminate competition, bully and manipulate the markets into doing the wrong thing at the wrong time, simply so that a few can prosper... It was the corner stone of the past administration: You are with us or against us. Most people in the world thought they were talking about violent terrorism but they weren't content to stop there. The financial terrorism sponsored by these thugs, in the long run, will be seen as just as bad, if not worse, then psycho jihadisits.

[ Please understand that when I write the above, I'm not referring to Republicans or Democrats. This has nothing-- absolutely nothing--to do with political parties. The fact that this was perpetrated by a few 'rogue' Repubs, is (in my view) a coincidence. ]
