The sad thing is that these people will probably get less than 10 years for doing billions of dollars worth of damage to many homeowners.

Exactly, the "justice" system doesn''t look at criminal acts objectively otherwise many of the "justices" would be at risk of being locked up for life. So, they protect their kind, those who are of affluence, well educated and monied.

Poor people guilty of less damage to society due life sentences while these kind get a little slap on the wrist.

Scalia may take holy communion into his mouth from one of the "men of God" but neither kind will escape the ultimate true justice.

I have been saying it for some time now...Morgan Stanley is in it up to their eyebrows.....They buy into oil commodities, save it and sell later, making a killing....You and I are paying for that through higher energy prices, food, and other goods.....We used to have our stock accounts with them, but found that they were recommending stocks that would make them money (through commissions), but not necessarily good for our long term interests....We gave Morgan Stanley the boot!!!

Is that like the definition of "buddy" when you scuba dive?

A buddy is the person you stab when you see a shark. Is that right?

They won''''t .... they are members of Bush''''s "Have More Club". This is all for show. Taxpayers paid billions to bail out Bear Stearns courtesy of Bernanke. Bear Stearns should have been allowed to collapse to zero along with all the other financiers that put the country into the mess.
