> The desciption above also applies to current top management of major banks, Slick and Hildebeast, and probably Obama. Madoff is not an exception to the norm, but is a typical sample of current financial and political elites.

As well as many senior management in most companies, many people at partner-level in most law an accounting offices, many top civil servants, many performing artists, some in the medical profession, many people in Law Enforcement...

There are alot of psychopaths out there. For real. Only a few of them go on to commit serious crimes.

The galling thing is that the rewards systems are usually tuned to encourage their antisocial destructive behaviors

The current reward system is geared in favor of those who can skillfully manipulate people's perception. Make them feel good, stab them from behind, and blame somebody else. This includes a lot of obfuscation and sophistry to cloud the issue and get away with crooked deals.

Legal and financial profession all churn out complicated mechanisms which make public bewildered but they can wrap it with feel-good sound bites while they exploit it to the max to line their pocket.

The psychopath is the individual with a broken moral compass; no sense of right or wrong only what is expedient. Pretty much a definition of liberalism; no right or wrong, just do whatever you want without consequence.

"Talented psychopaths" like Ted Bundy are typical of current financial and political elites.........also applies to Slick and Hildebeast, Obama (and people on his staff like his COS Rahm Emanuel).........and senior management in most law and accounting offices, top civil servants, and many in Law Enforcement...There are a lot of psychopaths out there.

Shows how a constitutional democracy gets finished off. These types clearly depend on the “freedoms” of our fragile democracy to pull off crooked schemes.

All of these people kneel in obeisance to the three-headed monster: “Political Correctness, “Moral Relativity” and the "Hyphenate Entitlement."

Madoff scared off anyone who dared suggest he was a crook by playing the all-occasion Hyphenate Entitlement card. Madoff knew “tolerant and compassionate” political correctness protected him and his Hyphenate Entitlement———with laws, and federal giveaways, in return for campaign cash and hyphenated voting blocs.

From public schools to the Halls of Congress, on down to the White House, and over to the USSC, "Animal Farm" is now the law of the land. Some Animals Are Above The Rest. Scientific methodology is the means and methods for the fittest among us to survive......ask Bernie....he knows how that works.

Also explains the obsession with religious cleansing of America, and its politics, by those "uncomfortable" with the religious precepts most Americans live by.

We face an uncharted future, thanks to malevolent, unchecked, unbridled greed and avarice......and we even get to clean up the figging messes (gag).

What is clear is that these malicious individuals and their life of lies, lack the distinctive American character that strengthens the business of democracy.
