Prosecute the CEOs?? Sign me up..
I'm not a vengeful type, really.
But having been around long enough to see plenty of financial
dirty-dealing...
all I can say is that if one commits acts like Jeffrey Skilling or
Bernie Ebbers...
I want them to contemplate how many folks they screwed...
while staring at the bare walls of their cell for up to 23 hours/day.
And disgorge their ill-gotten gain to make sure at least the
stockholders that trusted their "guidance" get back maybe even
pennies on the dollar of their losses.
Instead of ZERO pennies on the dollar.
I know, I know...that's is not a great financial solution.
But if I was somebody that had lost all of an investment in
FreddieMac/Fannie Mae,
Knowing that the pukes responsible are locked up for a long time
would be...PRICELESS!!!
Such a thing should only occur under due process and the rule of law.
And all I was suggesting was the thanks Palin would get for doing
in the Freddie Mac/Fannie Mae COLLAPSE what she's done many times before.
Clean up a FREAKIN' BIG MESS!!!

But dont forget the Congressmen behind this debacle either...:
Thanks for the excellent link. Tonight, on the PBS Newshour With Jim Liar, Senators Shelby and Dodd had a very interesting chat on this topic. Of course, the weasel Dodd finally got around to blaming the PUBs for blocking necessary reforms.; he stated that Bush threatened vetoes of Rat legislation.
That's when Shelby stated, very calmly, that the Dims have in fact been blocking "strong regulator" legislation, since 2003. The look on Dodd's silent face was one of stark realization that he had stepped into something very unpleasant.
