In Need of a Shakedown.

Corporate America is in desperate need of a shakedown. How much more is it going to take for some real measures to take place? All these crooks in charge of corporations are always making deals that only benefit themselves. What happens to their companies shareholders??? They get the finger.

I don't understand why people with a few thousand dollars in their savings accounts are willing to hand it over to these fraudsters. Following the stick and carrot.

Have money you want to invest? How about spending it in your town, like buying munipal bonds, or other programs that will improve your town, rather than buy some big CEO another multi-million yatch.

Unbelievable.

Because investing in bonds not nothing to help me get my yatch! No one ever claimed that free markets are not messy; it just happens to be the best system out there.
