Perceptive Remark

An article which was essentially a list of many of the victims of Bernie Madoff’s Ponzi scheme inspired a comment which is worth repeating. The Snarkmeister said that ”what this Bernie Madoff did privately is no worse than what Hank Paulson and Ben Bernanke are doing publicly to the U.S. taxpayers. In a sad way, Madoff should be admired for having been able to accomplish such a swindle without the help of the U.S. Congress.”
