I agree, but I didn't say that the government was responsible for the situation, only that they profited just as Madoff profited. And that is a problem for our government.
I see, so if a bank robber buys a car from you and you make a nice little profit on that car, you should give it back if the robber is caught? The same with the restaurant owner, the grocer, the utility company etc. After all, they profited from his illegal actions as well.
