Saying that most are crooked is like saying most people are murders just because there is murders in the world.

I don't know what planet you are on Ric..Do you read the papers?????..Do you have any idea WHY wallstreet banks will be extinct at the end of this week.>>It must be the AWESOME Business model they have!!??

So you think all those exotic dirivitives and CDO CRO SIV and so on and so forth are all above board!!??..And what about all the retirements of hard working people they put into bankrupsy in the process so they could get their 70 million dollars salaries and multi million dollar bonuses for the last 10-20 years on the backs of the middle class!..Dont get me started Ric..and you should be ashamed of yourself
