Allan – I did find it strange and Madoff fell on his sword, so to speak. But I think it was b/c he didn’t want to take down his sons in the process. And I’m certain there’s still way more of his money out there that he doesn’t want tracked. Also Fed Pen is like a country club compared to other prisons anyway. But still, quite a lifestyle change for him. He knew the gig was up and just took the dive. There’s more to that story for sure.
You’re right. If doors were open, there would be a huge backlash. Riots in the street. We may get there yet. Another Tea Pary – taxation w/out representation. We sure are not being represented as we should be.
This is like Enron, but a much grander scale. The whole U.S. is involved and at stake.
