They can take it out of the one that defrauded them. Isn’t that how it works?

[Madoff's] victims say their losses should be measured by the fictitious amount they thought they had in their accounts when the Ponzi scheme collapsed.

Those people might be more delusional than Madoff is evil. Sheesh.

A lot of Madoff’s victims were overpaid, talentless Hollywood types.

Why don’t THEY first reimburse the American public from the hideous renumeration they receive, for the vile detritus they inflict on American culture.

Why do we even bother keeping a semblance of law and order? A few billion here a trillion there why don’t we just let loose and print until we’re buried in paper.

Sorry, but we lost TENS and TENS of THOUSANDS if not HUNDREDS and HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS from the Tech Bubble....shouldn’t have had so much money in one sector.....and then lost a ton in the crash last year. It’s GAMBLING.....you win some, you lose some. WISE UP.

I thought I had millions, so the government should give me millions.

Ask these idiots if they made any profit would they have shared it with the tax payers?

The arrogance of some people leaves me speechless.

My sympathy for them extends to some extent; but stops far short of my pocket.

Some were truly hurt, others were just greedy and foolish.

Too late. Get in line like all us po folks have to do.

Don’t y’all understand that you are going to be held personally responsible?

You believed Bernie, your fault. Really it is.

Now I know banks and other Obama folks don’t have to suffer...but you are freakin’ greedy and stupid. They would have taken it in taxes anyways fools.

Got it?
