Knighty, btw, how did the regulation to prevent lehman work out? oh, a promotion to treasury secretary instead of jail for tax fraud. yes, government does work after all, right? <g> btw, you love some straw men, don't you? i fully agree that greed permeates the private sector and makes the playing field extremely unfair. no way the goldman sachs gang can only have one losing trade day in Q2 unless they have the markets gamed with extra information. i'll bet much of it provided by the government. the same government that encourages banks to lie through their teeth so when they implode the tax payer gets to pay for the 40% of reported assets that aren't really there. we agree on the sheer stupidity of the decision to continue to make pennies. who makes that stupid decision? that would be government - no doubt inspired by the copper industry's bribe money.
