Check your timeline... the NFA release says Feb 2010 and March 2011, so that should be Quote:TWENTY-EIGHT TO TWENTY-NINE MONTHS It's inconceivable that the Chairman is the only person who was party to this fraud. And it's inconceivable that there will not be perp walks here. And yet... I harbor no expectations for any perp walks. P.S. And no, this wasn't a typo by the WSJ. Here's the original link to the NFA letter... http://www.nfa.futures.org/BasicNet/Case....Reason: Added postscript with URL

I bought the "Stop the Looting - Start Prosecuting" bumper sticker
two years ago. It is now old and faded. Corzine has walked, Blankfien
has walked, Dimon has walked, and the list goes on.
There is such a hideous evil that has descended upon us.
Total, complete, wide scale wealth destruction is almost here.
I hope the ones who ahve prepared are prepared enough.
May God be with us.

The system cannot be saved at this point. The corruption and rot run too deep. The system has become sclerotic and unreformable. We have a master class that has now reached the point where they can act openly and blatantly. We have an underclass peasantry that won't do anything. In fact, more than that they label you a kook if you talk out against the status quo. We are just going to have to pray and hope that something better comes out of the other side of the paradigm shift that is coming (I won't hold my breath on that one).
I have to say, I don't get how any of you "trade" in the "markets". How about taking your nut and going home. How can you complain about the fraud in the financial markets and then enable said fraud by engaging in trading?

Amen brother,
**** these guys, we are consumed by evil to the core. I'm done hoping for the right thing to be done.
My only hope now is in God and that he will be with me for what we are all about to go through.

A lament I've said over the past 4 - 5 years to my brother seems apropos here; it's usually used in reference to when he gets tired of my bitching and says something like "Go ahead then Rambo, start shooting." My response:
"There's not enough ammo, and I have no idea where to start."
For any .gov dip**** reading, no, that's not a direct threat to any man, woman, or thing in-between that you libtards consider a "normal" gender-bending freak. It's just a random statement, so **** off.
Karl, as many above have said - it's hopeless at this point. I admire and appreciate your dedication for NOT DROPPING IT all these years.... I just at my core consider myself to be a realist - and realistically, we're ****ED.

All I want is equal justice. Not a penny more or less will do. All them ****in lawyers talk about Justice. Judges without integrity? The very foundation of society. This is mad max right now. It will only get worse until we have equal justice. They lost the note six ****ing times. Ignorance of the LAW is no excuse.
Our judges are claiming to be ignorant of the Law they hold in such high regard?
MAN THAT IS TOUGH TO HEAR. But the truth is like that,,,

I'm so glad that we have the web and some concerned citizens.
If it wasn't for the distribution of knowledge by the web ...
I would still think that we are living in the only land where law and order prevail.

Then you, Jal, are delusional. No offense intended brother. After (or perhaps before) the debacle with the GM bondholders there has to be the presumption that we live in a lawless society.

I just at my core consider myself to be a realist - and realistically, we're ****ED. A good man doesn't need violence. I fall back again on dead philosophers: http://jessescrossroadscafe.blogspot.com....Martin Luther King wrote..There’s a civil war going on. There is a schizophrenia, as the psychologists or the psychiatrists would call it, going on within all of us. And there are times that all of us know somehow that there is a Mr. Hyde and a Dr. Jekyll in us. And we end up having to cry out with Ovid, the Latin poet, "I see and approve the better things of life, but the evil things I do." We end up having to agree with Plato that the human personality is like a charioteer with two headstrong horses, each wanting to go in different directions. Or sometimes we even have to end up crying out with Saint Augustine as he said in his Confessions, "Lord, make me pure, but not yet." We end up crying out with the Apostle Paul, "The good that I would I do not: And the evil that I would not, that I do." Or we end up having to say with Goethe that "there’s enough stuff in me to make both a gentleman and a rogue."
There’s a tension at the heart of human nature. And whenever we set out to dream our dreams and to build our temples, we must be honest enough to recognize it.
And this brings me to the basic point of the text. In the final analysis, God does not judge us by the separate incidents or the separate mistakes that we make, but by the total bent of our lives. In the final analysis, God knows that his children are weak and they are frail. In the final analysis, what God requires is that your heart is right. Salvation isn’t reaching the destination of absolute morality, but it’s being in the process and on the right road. In other words, it's not your job to fix this world, just get your heart right, that's all you can do. The rest are going to do what the rest are unfortunately going to do. If it makes you feel any better, they know not what they do.

That said, in practical terms I agree, this is not going to get solved by the status quo. Change will come as real change tends to, by absolute crushing necessity. Was it Nietzsche who said the main lesson of history is that humans learn nothing from history?

KD,
Again I request you to consider running for President.
Why?
America needs a leader who really cares to bring it back on track
America needs a leader with passion like yours
America needs a leader who will do what is the just thing .. lock up the banksters and Central banksters
America needs a leader who understands what needs to be done
America needs a leader who wants a just society
In short, America NEEDS YOU!
Will you run?

"It also can't release funds, so if you have money there....."
Yes, it is going to be interesting to see what happens. Fortunately, I only have a few thousand in my account there, but, I didn't plan on it possibly being lost by the brokerage failing. I always thought that I was the most dangerous person to my account balance. We will see what happens next.

So after MF Global you guys still have money in a brokerage? Well nobody can cry poor mouth, because MF Global put you on warning, and anything after that is voluntary sex. Sorry.
