Ya know what cracks me up? The financial Gurus at Lehman and Bear Sterns, AIG et all can drive a company bankrupt with crappy investments, but Joe sixpack and Suzy lunchpail are supposed to be wiser than that.
Of course all the yahoos that drove the ship up on the rocks got bonus’s and a bail out

POST OF THE DAY!
And what really makes me angry is guess who’s going to get bailed out by the gummint? Not Joe sixpack or Suzy lunchpail: it will be the “experts” at Lehman and Bear Sterns WHO OUGHT TO HAVE KNOWN BETTER and who actually WERE driven by Greed.
That is just plain wrong.
Indeed, we have two FED chairman backed by legions of PhD economists who drove a country bankrupt with this nonsense, but Joe and Suzy are supposed to know better.
I don't know why folks want to punish the victims rather than the professional con men that perpetrated these scams.
