Nice to see they are doing some good with the obscene profits they
make up here.

Well, that stands to reason, I mean, Al Capone and John Gotti were
generous heros in their own neighborhoods.

I wonder why a Canadian Bank would have interests in both Maryland and
Virginia?

Capitalizing on a future oyster market?


Organized crime is an outfit of pikers compared to the wall street,
corporate and banking crooks.

Harry, you pound on corporations continuously. With what would you
replace them if given the power?

Serious question, btw.


It's not a matter of replacing them, it's a matter of strictly
controlling and regulating them, which, for most practical purposes, we
do not do.


How much regulating and controlling do you figure "corporations" will
tolerate before they pick up stakes and LEAVE THE GOOD OL USA for
greener pastures. They won't fall for the man's condescending jive talkin.
Merry Christmas Grinch. ;-)

Fair question.

As has been noted, regulations exist, but are not enforced - even by the current regime. You will
have noted that the SEC is finally doing something about Fannie and Freddie, now that Barney is no
longer interested in protecting the CEOs.


I'm aware we have regs not being enforced, a situation which clearly
falls into the breadth of my statement that "it's a matter of strictly
controlling and regulating them." We need additional regulations and we
need to strictly enforce those we have. We also need to push for more
criminal prosecutions of corporate officers for "excesses" that are now
treated as civil matters.

Perhaps the best solution would be to have a government regulator sitting next to every corporate
executive. Hell, then we could just get rid of the corporate executives and let the government
regulators do the job.

Shoot, it worked in the USSR, didn't it?

Yes it is. And just where do we find the thousands upon thousands of
competent, incorruptible new government employees that will do the
controling and regulating? And how much will that cost, and at what
impact to the national debt and economy?

We can't even find competent employees with good judgement to work in
the TSA.

The publicly held companies are self-regulated. They have stockholders
(owners) to report to. If you want to live in a place where the
government owns and regulates everything you can move to Venezuela.
