%82.20 percent of the common shares are owned by institutions and insiders, the rest are public investors, traders like ourselves posting on this board. Most of these shares are actually owned by investors through mutual fund companies that represent common stock holders who have invested in 401k's, I.R.A.'s, and possibly our social security that we pay into.
I tell all of you now, if you don't get paid for your shares in Lehmen or a stock swap by Barclays. Their is a serious internal criminal financial activity going on right now. If our system keeps brain washing us that we won't have any social security payment when we retire, then why the hell are we paying into it right now. They insanely rob us of our retirement, they rob our common stock, and we say nothing. I would have to say over 80 percent of working individuals that invest in 401k's don't know their money is being stolen right from under their nose's through outfits such Barclay's and JP Morgan Chase and many others.
Just think about one thing and only one thing. If we citizens were to take all our money out of all of the banks tomorrow in the world, all of the banking instutions would collapse and we would send a signal of authority to them. No more CEO, and banking Executives would ever get a bonus for mismanaging our money.
Thank God, we now have credit cards we can load money. We can still operate on a cash only life of no debt.
