Hacker 82 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 (edited) Folks we have a FUBAR situation. I will not look at my pension statement for the quarter, because I know I have been raped. The greed and lack of oversight that led to this debacle is enough to sicken us all. We all know who gets to pay this check. Us, and I am willing to bet that none of us profited from it. It suddenly struck me that we in this area we saw a mini version of this when the Bank of Keystone went belly up. I just hope the same thing happens on Wall Street as happened there; that those responsible get their assets seized and they end up locked in the Federal pen.

Hacker 82 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 lol..the ones responsible are the ones that put people in the pen...in a bigger picture. So we have no laws that apply to those in power. If that is the case, we are all screwed and will see chaos if there is no correction soon. Maybe the anarchists should have a shot at things.

Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 Now the Dow closed up almost 500 points today! "What the hell's goin on out here?!?!?" - Vince Lombardi A lot of sold stocks Monday = a lot of bought stocks Tuesday. Self-correction of the market. And Lance's point's pretty much dead on. Leaving those companies to regulate themselves was a massive mistake; this is precisely the kind of thing that needed to be legislated. Blame the lawmakers... Thank goodness I'm young.
