The SEC even set up an 800 number that companies could use to report "too aggressive investigation by SEC," of course no similar number for investors. So, the SEC which approved these CDs as securities, is liable and so is the government. Tax payers have been hit up for literally trillions of dollars to bail out crony bankers and the few billion needed for SiPC to set right the malfeasance of the SEC in the Stanford case is by comparison pocket change. It needs to be done. - OLDIE Tue, 18 Aug 2009 09:26:18 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4816#comment-2334 Greed rules. If you remember the S&L scandal, the tech wreck, Enron, the mortgage meltdown, to name a few, it is always some greedy b-stards playing games, with their politician and bureaucrat buddies playing dumb. "we didn't know about it". The Chinese don't seem to have a problem. The head bureaucrat who allowed melamine to ship in pet food and baby formula, he's dead! I can't remember whether they shot him or hung him. Suppose they hung Bernie Madoff, or those crooks at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac? Put a stop to that real quick. - Phil Mon, 17 Aug 2009 19:52:23 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4816#comment-2327 If one advisor new the cd's were bogus in 2003 why didn't all the others know. Is it because they looked the other way to get large commissions, or were they really as dumb as they say they are? I can not for the life of me understand why the investors are so afraid to confront the other financial advisors. I can't believe than so few are filing suits against the advisors that received such large commissions. Do they think that the taxpayers will bail them out? The cd's were for the chosen few and was a well kept secret until the s*** h** the fan!!! I feel sorry for the investors that were duped. But, I certainly as a taxpayer do not want my money to be given to them to cover their loss!! - northsidian Mon, 17 Aug 2009 16:25:39 +0100
