ElM, in case you didn't know, there were already plenty of laws making what Bernie Madoff did illegal. No more regulations were needed. Plenty of people considered giving money to Bernie and sensibly decided against it, because they realized that what he was doing didn't make sense. As with normal confidence tricks, he sucked in the credulous. Fraud has been illegal for a very long time. The credulous now think that more and bigger government with more regulations will improve things. You have been tricked by the wayo crowd, which is amusing considering you consider yourself such a great detector of wayo. You have been tricked! There's one born every minute. Mqurice
