and nothing will be done but a mock trial and slap on the wrists and laws to hide the corruption from the people...
we have seen the enemy, and they are us.

After we are finished discounting this article because of the source (Rolling Stone) we should consider that much of this is not new, we have all been aware of the massive danger presented by derivatives for some time now. What is relatively new are the allegations of conspiracy.
We should consider why this article is being printed, undoubtedly to justify government control of these markets. Clearly, the matter must be investigated but to hand over control of literally hundreds of trillions of dollar market to the likes of Barack Obama is insane. We have seen what the Democrats do when they have a chance, we need only say, "Dodd-Frank."
I would rather have the chicanery of an Arab bazaar controlling the market instead of Barack Obama. Aladdin's 40 thieves at least are motivated by greed while Obama is motivated by far more sinister motive.
