The Sub-Prime mortgage scandal will go down in history as another event that sent an entire industry into crisis and traced it''s roots to greed.


Since the 1970''s when our country entered the deregulation era, everyone hunting for profit searches for losers with predatory intent and the grandest scale possible.

We are entering an era where the middle class has begun to exit their participation in markets and resist investing with a greater stubborness than seen with the post-depression bank depositors, who were embittered with uncompensated losses.

These people should be let go. Afterall they are rich and rich people shouldnt go to jail. These tax dollars would be better spent on armor for the troops.

Tannin''s attorney has declined to comment and Cioffi''s attorney has not responded to a phone message.

What do you expect them to do? They are not going to admit their clients are scum, lying, greedy opportunist.
