"5) There's talk about criminal penalties by a few, but having politically-motivated prosecutions isn't a great idea either. If there's proof for a conviction, prosecutors should seek it. Unfortunately, proving criminal fraud is very difficult, especially when the criminals hire the best lawyers money can buy to help them proactively create a paper trail designed to create reasonable doubt. "

They need to pass some type of new law and apply retroactively then.Not realistic and would never happen, I know, but there HAS to be some way we can get at those 1%er *&^%$#s. Makes me wish we had a Hugo Chavez for our country sometimes!
