Madoff Robbery. Where is the Victim's Bailout?

He scammed 50 Billion. Ummm... Where is the bailout for the people that got their LIVES robbed?

The government has been spreading all this cash around to the banks, and corporations. Why not just allocate 50 billion to clean up this mess? Nice thought huh.... help all the American taxpayers who got RIPPED OFF? The charities and pensions who got SWINDLED?

"Mr." Bernard Madoff has had his fun in the sun, and continues to. The scam he perpetrated was despicable. But so far, he is still not in jail. Oh, maybe house arrest. It is disgusting!!!

Try robbing someone on the street of $45 tonight, and see when you are picked up by law enforcement where you end up. If you took someones pocket change for the week you could end up in the slammer, but take someones life savings, as Madoff did to numerous people on the street, and you can sit at home in luxury while you await your day in court.

Are you kidding me?

Victims of this treacherous man include contributors to pension funds, small business owners, and everyday working people. Do you think I care how much millionaires or billionaires lost to his scam when the people who put their whole trust in this man lost everything they had?
Although it is sad that anyone would be robbed a penny in a scam like this, the media seems to think that it is more important to run stories telling us how much wealthy celebrities and notables have lost because of the huge amount of money they had invested.

To a plumber, engineer, shopkeeper or waitress, who lost everything or close to it, this is a life destroyer. People who have worked their whole lives to put money away for their retirement, their kid's education, or just for survival. It is atrocious to see what little worth the story of a common persons plight is compared to the pain felt in a celebrity's portfolio.

America really needs to get a grip and start understanding that the working people are the ones who drive the economy and start taking an interest in how much we are getting ripped off daily.

And now close to 700,000 people losing their jobs in December...

Oh, that's another story...
