    I was on Overstock doing a bit of shopping and came across this and wonder what others thought about it.
    With the protests of late because accusations of Walls street corruption. Market manipulators and down right liars fleecing of America. This story hits the nail on the head.

    Will be interesting to see the out come of this trial.
    If you read the first part of this article you will read that others have settled out of court to the tune of millions.

    Now my 401k is tied up there too. If there is corruption going on the public needs to know and it needs to be corrected.
    I believe a lot of the protests going on now are because of this corruption and how the layman is getting robbed by unfair and illegal practices.
    Me naive??? Nahhh. I still believe things can be fixed but only if we stand together and demand it.
    One more thing and I may be wasting my breath but, Republican, Democrat, Independents, citizens of all stripes have 401k's, not just one party over the other. We all have something at stake. Think possibly we could discuss this without blaming the other guy? Or am I still being naive? Nahhh not me...giggle.

    There is certainly corruption but the people protesting on Wall St. have no idea why they are even there. Bunch of college kids with skulls full of mush or people who don't work and have no place or nothing else to do.
