And they won’t rest until he receives 3x the penalty that John Corzine receives for stealing $1.2 billion.

"The government said Quiroa netted at least $13,000 from his Web sites by selling advertising."

"If convicted, Quiroa faces up to five years in prison."

Meanwhile....the world is circling the drain....Solyndra, other failed companies and bansters get millions of our tax dollars....yet our govt is concerned about some dude in Grand Rapids streaming sports and fake flea market T-shirts??
