Why are banks involved with "derivatives"? I know nothing about them other than the fact that they are extremely volatile. Whatever happened to the conservative banker and why should we bail fools of this magnitude out? Is it because like Donald Trump, they are just too big to fail and go into bankruptcy like the average Joe? Why did they invest billions in bonds of WorldCom, advise Enron and other companies on how to hide debts, and allow scumbos like Jack Grubman to ride herd over their subsidiaries while paying such a clown $20 MILLION a YEAR!

I can't answer these questions but maybe someone on the forum can.
