  • Crazy, most people can't even discern that the govt had to be involved in this conspiracy. That's how stupid most people are, and it's why the market (or system) goes on functioning.

  • This shouldn't shock anyone. The system doesn't work because it was never designed to in the first place.

  • "You can't con an honest man."

  • WHY DIDN'T HE JUST GO TO THE FBI? It was a crime he was 100% sure about, why not go to Law enforcement? This question he cannot answer.

  • @inbetweentics Oh, you're THAT guy.....

  • @DrPepperAndSteak can you imagine if 60 minutes actually did a REAL story about the truth of financial fraud in america and globally by exposing the rockefellers and the federal reserve with its fornicating with the european central bank, imf and all of this connected to the city of london? all of this to collapse the financial systems of the world - huh, and russia just joined the wto - they're going down now too..it's the end of the world as we know it.. and i feel fine..

  • @inbetweentics Haha, too true.

  • Markopolos doesn't blink--kind of creepy ...

  • It's funny watching Madoff talk at 8:15. What a psycho.

  • Something tells me that it may have already been too late by the time Markopolos was on to him as Madoff was running his Ponzi scam for decades. However, if the SEC had paid attention to this guy, some people who had not yet given his money to Madoff or had given their money to someone managing mutual and retirement funds had dealings with Madoff would have been spared this awful financial tragedy.

  • no sir, the largest financial fraud in us history is THE FEDERAL RESERVE!

  • @financehawk If we had more nerds working at the SEC and these so-called feeder funds maybe Madoff wouldn't have operated for as long as he did
