Can i prove it? No, I only can go by what the law says and what Corzine did. That is the SEC's job and eric Holder. Why do you think they've done nothing? The fact that the feds haven't prosecuted one bankster under Obama is ridiculous. If it was Bush you'd be screaming off the roof tops. because it is "your guy"....not so much, in fact you are circling the wagons with the likes of SP, Chinu, Tejek, koan, etc. Your actions are just as blindly partisan as lindybill and his right wing cronies in defending Bush. === O had total control of the gov't for 2 years and did NOTHING to change the status quo.

A score of 0 would indicate perfectly equal distribution, while a score of 1 would reflect a population in which one individual received all the income. Read the full story here.
