I am delighted with the Madoff case and have absoultely no sympathy for people who invested with this man because their greed clouded their judgment to put all their eggs in one basket.
Never did they question why they were getting 10% dividend and interest income when everyone else in America received less than 5%. This is a saga of the "have's" thinking they know better, are smarter and have better connections because they are above us all.
As the old saying goes, "birds of a feather flock together," and "like kinds attract." Bernie Madoff was the perfect medicine to people who thought they were better than the rest.
HE KNEW HE COULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEM BECAUSE HE COULD PLAY UPON THEIR GREED, A PREREQUISITE FOR ANY CON ARTIST.
May they stew in it, and may Bernie get pardoned, because in factual situations murder and rape are far worse crimes, but in this capitalistic society we are indoctrinated to think other wise. Tell that to someone who lost a loved one recently, or from survivors of the holocaust who saw their loved ones starve and get slaughtered.
Enjoy the stew; everyone got what they deserved!
