I don't know why you should be so concerned Illinois Blue? Since you are in the US are you paying any UK income tax?

When its all said and done its best to mind your own business in Public
thesedays.
Some individuals(usually under the influence) just love a bit of verbal followed by a bit of physical violence
I'd sooner give a lecture to Sauron the Deceiver than some of these apathetic individuals who the system has dispensed down the toilet
You just never know who's carrying hidden knives or guns
Sadly its become part of our culture

Capitalism has never been the answer
The stock market used to be a place to raise funds for business ventures now its no more than a psuedo Casino
Gordon Gecko & Nick Leeson being the worst cases I can think of
All in the name of massive profits for massive bonuses
It took Australia almost 10 years to recover from what the entrepreneurs abd the Banks did in the Eighties but they still continue to lose big time occasionally
Corporate Greed is where its at for mine...stop Presidents trying to build empires and crown themselves King every year and everybody in society might stand a chance but until then.......

Sorry to be pendantic but Nick Leeson actually dealt in convertibles rather than the traditional stock market. I personally think that he paid his dues for his crimes, after all he was never a danger to society was he? He would have served a lesser sentence and in better conditions if he'd murdered someone.

At least if he had of killed a single person that would have been the end of it
You should never underestimate the ripple effect when a financial institution goes bellyup to the tune of billions of pounds
Plenty of Suicides have been attributed to the 4 banking disasters in Australia

now, now Dibble. This thinking is wrong. We are wrong.
We should sympathise with these people (not allowed to call them vermin!) and send them on courses were they can learn the error of their ways, and perhaps train for a part-time job in a call centre. That will stop them stealing and taking the drugs society has been (purposely) flooded with.
