4. "Risky" ...? Or were they doing favors ....???

Edited on Mon Dec-27-10 04:13 AM by defendandprotect

There's been a lot of game-playing with pension funds --

"watch dogs" permitted serious underfunding based on corporate requests and inane

reasoning --

Evidently some private pensions were used to finance moving US jobs overseas --

and some of the pension funds were used to finance the housing bubble!!

See Catherine Austen Fitts - YouTube

PLUS Congress has known about these developing scandals for decades -- and done nothing!!!

Then, again, maybe we're the ones who have done "nothing" in expecting millionaires and

multi-millionaires in Congress to protect our interests!!

How dumb are we?
