I thought hedge funds which only the fabulously wealthy could invest in were largely unregulated???? Just wondering.
The largest individual recipients were Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA), $34,000; Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), $31,000; Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR), $25,000; Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, $23,500; Rep. Richard Gephardt (D-MO), $12,000; Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ), $6,600; and Sen. John Kerry (D-MA), $4,500. The Democrat Senatorial Campaign Committee, which Schumer currently chairs, received $104,050.
Among Republicans, the lion’s share of Madoff family contributions went, oddly enough, to Rep. Jack Fields (R-TX), $13,000. Sen. John McCain received $2,000.
shouldn’t they ALL have to give that money to charity now or something???
Of course the Dems will use this to call for MORE regulation. The idea of enforcing existing regulations before adding new regulations is foreign to them.
Accountability no longer exists in this Republic. Lawlessness is steadily taking over.
And the only answer many of our elected officials can offer is: bailout cash for the crooks and the incompetent. They’re selling off our children and grandchildren’s future for pie in the sky ideals that act as icing on a crap cake.
And to think these people are now in the position of power.
the solution is to stimulate production, not pile more debt on the taxpayer.
sadly it wont happen
politicians are like shopping addicted housewives with a stack of credit cards
the solution is so simple
massive tax breaks for manufacture of goods within the USA
massive tax breaks for buyers of homes
massive tax breaks for each job created
priority given to economic survival first and foremost over environmentalism
government spending strictly within budget, X dollars to spend from taxes collected, X dollars spent ....period
NO trillions of dollars in bailouts,
no trillions of dollars in pork barrel stimulus
these "solutions" are like bailing out the ocean with a bucket
I know this by experience, I went from a bankruptcy caused entirely 100% by a spending addict ex wife ( not by me) to an almost 800 credit score in 10 years
I simply lived within my income, borrowed conservatively, and paid off my loans
Our entire government should be fired and replaced with people who have real world experience instead of the weakling silver spoon spending addict gangsters who are in office from coast to coast from the top to the bottom, from the president on down to the DMV director
