I thought I'd entered another dimension myself there, so glad you got confused, too.
Ahem.
But this is a good list, Karen. People certainly are getting jobs... a good friend who had been despairing of it for some time while languishing in a miserable government health clinic job just got a DIRECTORSHIP at a VERY NICE PRIVATE COLLEGE which is opening a NEW medical center. (Healthcare -- good field to be in right now, btw!)
And DOUBLE btw: Congrats on getting your NEW BOOK off to the publishers' last week!!!

Hmmm
That "prominent New York business newspaper" was the Wall St. Journal. Don't see what this has to do with my post though......

Bernard Madoff
As a very prominent New York business newspaper very cheekily cracked: Why not appoint him as the Social Security czar.
I remember during the Bush-Gore debates,the issue of a lockbox came up and one of those gentlemen was insistent that there was a lockbox full of Social Security monies. What fun.
But to be serious for a moment: We have the SEC, the Federal Reserve, Sarbanes-Oxley, The Treasury and its IRS agents, the FBI, Congress and the Senate, The NYSE, The AMEX and the NASDAQ. And yet this guy did his thing.
Now we have a czar for TARP and the talk is a czar for Detroit etc etc. My question is why will it be different? The list of Senators/Congressmen who took contributions from Madoff is not surprising and we are expected to believe that all is well as the monies have been returned. As of this writing,none of these gentlemen have been arraigned yet.
