 Madoff’s RegretsPosted on Oct 27, 2011
Ponzi schemer Bernard Madoff’s got nothing but time as he serves his sentence in a North Carolina prison for defrauding a vast network of clients out of billions of dollars, and he’s apparently not averse to spending some of it sitting for interviews that aren’t likely to help his standing much. Take his latest session with ABC that ran on Thursday, for example. —KA

My only gripe is why his wife is not in the cell next to him.
She shared in his ill gotten gains and had to be a complete dumbass for not knowing his affairs better. Her money deserved to be taken as well.

Poor Bernie!
And poor us! This clown and his shenanigans, inside and outside his cell, still occupying the minds and airwaves while the huge transfer of wealth from average people to the top oligarchs continues.
His was the biggest Ponzi scheme? In what deranged reality? Ever hear of Enron? .. what about the Ponzi scheme that is our Government? Taking taxes and giving that to contractors for services unknown at prices unknown for the purposes of (unknown)? then printing money to cover it!?
And OH! .. the lavish praise and more to the increasingly inane BaBA Walters for being the only one who could secure such an important and ground-shaking interview! A clown talking with another clown! Really.. add the big red rubber noses and who would mistake that for news or them for important people?
Holy macaroni! How much can our society and way of life withstand until we implode?
Adios!

The more you learn about how these people think, the harder it gets to deny that they are literal sociopaths.

They have no conscience, no qualms about deception, and the only human emotion they understand is ego-gratification.

Bernie can be as contrite as needed to mitigate his mental anguish. He better convert to Catholicism,and confess his cosmic sins for relief.
Report thisNo matter what his new awakening is, he owes a lot of people a lot of money for his greedy actions. He should rot in prison.
I’m glad he stays in the news. We need constant reminders about Wall Street greed. I like seeing the fat cats wince.

Why one might ask why have the family fortunes made by Bernard’s theft not been seized to pay the people who lost their savings? I don’t think that the supposed interest should be given to the investors, but as much of their actual cash that was invested should go back to them and it should come from the ones who “made off” with the money aka as in his family.

The only difference between Madoff and the sundry banksters still ravishing the economy from “Fortress Wall St.” are the status of the clients that were screwed! You can rob the masses of billions but don’t dare beat Mike Bloombergs of the world out of a few thousand bucks!
