"Additionally, perhaps, part of Madoff’s plea bargain was for the government to leave his wife and kids alone, if they did not want to hear him start singing like a grease monkey in a shower stall."
Dear friends,
If Bernie Madoff conspired with others, in order to pull off a 60 billion dollars Ponzi scheme, then it would seem reasonable, at least to me, that along the way he encountered - if not colluded with - people who were/are either directly linked to our federal government or, at least, in some way connected to it. Would he then also know about other happenings involving the US government’s shady dealings and contractors, for instance? Maybe the powers-that-be just want him to shut up. Additionally, perhaps, part of Madoff’s plea bargain was for the government to leave his wife and kids alone, if they did not want to hear him start singing like a grease monkey in a shower stall.
Nevertheless, as far as I am concerned, the inevitable trillion dollars-plus “Bailout” for big banks and companies makes Madoff’s “take” of 60 billion dollars look like chump change, especially since our government has both the right and threat capacity (police and military) to legitimize printing up as much money as they see fit, at any time. Dig?
In any case, on the link below, you will find an inquiring piece from my very dear friend Elmer Smith who is both a columnist and member of the editorial board of the Philadelphia Daily News. Here, Elm questions Bernie Madoff’s recent sentencing. Check it out!
