OUCH.

Incredible. Glad to see the lessons of 2008 have already faded and banks are once again playing fast and loose with overleveraged clients.
This one is almost worse though - instead of a nationwide economy of homeowners, it was one single chucklefuck who created such monumental losses. Deja vu all over again - weak regulatory disclosures combined with feckless restraints of lendings, but nobody cared because fees were through the roof. We haven't learned a fucking thing. -
You seem to be under the impression there was a lesson to learn in the first place. Why wouldn't you say fuck it when you're inevitably getting bailed out?GreenRiverGatorz said:Incredible.

I have heard she is trying to raise private money for another start-up. Who in the fuck would give this chick another dime? Jesus.
She goes to trial here pretty soon. One of the things that makes the US literally better than many other countries is that we generally are willing to hang wealthy and influential people. It's a critical glue for our society that people see people like her pay. It's good for us as a people when this happens.
She faces up to 20 years. I hope she does at least 15 of them. She's a monster. -
A smart monster. She went after big names in the government establishment to lure other investors who were blinded by the big names thinking the establishment is smart and stuffcreepycoug said:

Bet she serves less than 5 at some white collar halfway house...the rulz don't apply to the elites and as fucked up and ostracized as she is she's still an elite. If I remember correctly she just got pregnant to help skirt the law.creepycoug said:

We live in a banana republic now...we have a two-tiered justice system. Steal a grand and you do 20 years...steal a billion and you do time served and parole. -
Then, to me, THIS is what the populist mob should turn its attention to and stop wasting time crying over Trump's spilled milk and confederate statues. Elections, sure, I guess if you really believe there is there there to a greater extent than it's existed before.HoustonHusky said:

But, again to me, punishing those who break the rules in the high game of finance is critically important. It's why the DOJ takes the insider trading laws seriously and enforces them vigorously. Same thing here. She's guilty of outright fraud and should sit in jail like Madoff had to sit.
Instead of arguing with strangers on Facebook about the culture wars, I would like to see the sharp end of the populist movement's arrow pointed at enforcing the rules on people who have money.
I like money and believe those who earn more of it than others get to have the luxuries that money affords. I'm not a communist. But if they cheat to get it, then fuck it ... you treat them like you'd treat any other thief.
I know, the Tug. @RaceBannon will let this one slide.
