If there was less than an "arms length" distance between the advice given to the investing public and the firms doing the advising was this a "free market"?
Does anyone "owe me you or anyone" else anything? No, Just a free market! Is it correct to allow thieves to profit from these manipulations (and to continue to profit from them)?
How would you suggest all those who may have been screwed out of near everything be compensated for these(possible) thefts? Would anything ever be said? If nothing is done now, would you allow those who may have commited among the greatest crimes of all time to continue to profit from them While those who have done no wrong to
forget these losses and let them throw away more?
Something truth must be said - one way or the other.

And are you one of these shorts?

Donald,

<<The thing is, we have to accept that as players in a FREE market, we
MIGHT be wrong.>>

That may be the case ... my fear is, we may be right but never know it, because it appears to no longer be a free market. That's what rubs me.... when a group is afforded the power to control/manipulate and thereby to define the rationalities or irrationalities that exist in the system.
