Thanks very much for your comment. Believe me, I am enraged, and I have seen Inside Job – it is an excellent film. See my review here http://www.ianfraser.org/inside-job-lifts-lid-on-biggest-and-most-shamless-heist-in-history/

Best wishes,
Ian

The SEC doesn’t seem to be interested in prosecuting anyone on Wall Street other than the small end of town. Bernie Madoff may have wrecked the lives of many but it’s small beer considering the government assistance given to Wall Street firms. What about Egan Jones? An independent ratings agency where the investor rather than the vendor pays for the rating, unlike the big three. It was the first to issue ratings downgrades for Enron and Worldcom and is currently being sued by the SEC. The worst a Wall Street firm can expect is a fine without having to admit wrong doing. If you really want to be enraged I suggest a viewing of Charles Ferguson’s film “Inside Job”.

Markopolos the man who informed the SEC about the Madoff scam, the SEC did nothing for years even after Markopolos gave them a binder detailing clearly how Madoff was committing fraud, Years later Markopolos said “do not trust your government” Organised crime has taken over the US government.
