  • Don't Be Scammed by Madoff Investor Sob Stories [View article]
    I don't believe investors should be bailed out above the SIPC either. I also do not believe people should be bailed out of mortgages or molly-coddled because they were too lazy or stupid to read the fine print. Our country is becoming weaker and weaker with an excuse for everything. Responsible, accountable individuals pay for the sleezebags. When will this country ever get some guts again and hold people accountable?
