The FBI has always come off as a quasi fascist organization. When you look at the actions they took at Waco/Ruby ridge, as well as what they did to the people who were printing up real money (the liberty dollar) with a silver standard, it’s not a difficult conclusion to come to. The cynic in me believes the FBI is trying to make an example out of these corrupt wall street con men to stifle the outrage of regular Americans. They will probably end up with a 10 year sentence in a white collar prison and get out on probation in 3 after good behavior. Welcome to the American justice system.

you’d make one HECK of an FBI agent on resolving what and where and who went wrong for what motive.

Paulson talks about confidence – everyone talks about confidence.

I think in the back of everyones mind is whether there is confidence in DOJ or SEC to properly hold accountable participants in much of the mess we are sorting through as a nation.

I for one would say I’d have more confidence knowing you were working on promoting integrity in US corporate business practices working with full authority to bring accountability those who you can build a winning case against.

Teach, FBI, hmm – perhaps TV economic journalism, but Fox is pretty lightweight – you really CARE about what you invest your time into, I’m not big fan of Bloomberg but there is what there is when it comes to what’s out there. Frankly – you outclass television – unless you got your own show – even PBS (Where Cavuto DID start, and all in all, I wish he perhaps stayed), that’s probably the best way to shine light on your work efforts – some solo show – but what network… hmm…

Hope to see it if you stay in TV – your own show that is. Heh, now TEACHING – you DO get your own show I guess heh – I’ve spent TOO much time in academia I suppose. Oh well. Back to work for me.

If you saw what I see for my work ? First, the NDA would block any ability to comment on it, but I think you’re jaw would drop on just how many people in the US have HELOC’s maxed out – and are riding on fumes and hope of credit – and of course job income.

Justin – when you have – let’s just say ‘problems’ in various networks inside the beltway in D.C. – the FBI THESE DAYS ? is more on your side as to siding with citizen’s than politicians… Note how I bring dichotomy – heh – some politicians won’t be able to vote if things carry through, if you get what I’m saying without saying anything.

But Just commenting on the article again – Watch WaMu up and coming. They beat CW in MANY ways regarding ‘negligence’. Myself ? I know criminality will be resolved but I want to understand more the potential civil / liability suits arising.

I see Cleveland area moving the ball the fastest on class action potential against some of the fly by night sub prime units – whether under Citi or -well – let’s just say – after write downs, there is likely going to be other losses not even included yet on the books when fraud can be proven.

nice article Liz

You’re the best.

Truly admire your courage to go after whatever you want in journalism – and always – you never leave anyone bored – it’s always got passion in it.

To that, hey, I think that’s 1/2 of life – living passion in vocation. Kudos.

No clue how you ended up at Fox. But, hey, there ya go, you even made THAT work in your favor without forfeiting integrity.

Tellin ya – teaching is your calling ! Hope you don’t go into corporate law, all my friends that are corporate lawyers are boring, it’s like the life got sucked out of them. SURE they cleanup $ wise – but bah…
