Funny. I had the same problem until I found some trading buddies.

Its all in the commercials that are pounded into the heads of every American day in and day out. Think about it: Commercials last what, 30 seconds each? They show a short scene of people doing something awesome. That makes the viewer want to do that same awesome thing. What they leave out is...

Where there's a will there's a way. If a corporation hires the creme of the crop accountants, financial analysts and lawyers, they're going to get away with paying no taxes. Its a ROI thing. If the manpower costs less than the taxes then they're not going to pay taxes.

So this guy filed for bankrupcy and now he's impecable? I guess he traded so much that he made all the mistakes that can be made. Now he's in God mode. Now... where could he have found the cheat code?

For a problem that weighs $14 trillion the fix is going to have to be long term. Immediate results are impossible.

Yeah, its all about protecting the 'sacred cows' as you say. There is so much money that Wall Street uses to fund government that I honestly don't think anything will change much. On the one hand I'll be able to keep doing what I'm doing. On the other hand the future is in big trouble.
