A wise man once said "Some people rob you with a six gun and some people rob you with a fountain pen."
The difference is that the bank robber who stole $1000 gets 10 years hard time in federal prison, whereas the bankers, the brokers, and the their politicians who stole $10 trillion not only got the taxpayers to cover their losses, but are now raking in millions in commissions handling the bail-out money. We won't get out of this mess until we start treating the fountain pen robbers just like six gun robbers.
