In a brilliant piece of detective work and logic reasoning, writer Muhammad Rafeeq has exposed what Madoff is really at by pleading guilty to the $50 billion so called fraud. Rafeeq worked for many years in large investment firms and knows how the system works.

There are teams of specialists in these banks to do this all the time. Rafeeq suggests that Madoff fund simply went bust in which case the investors would not be entitled to get any money back.

Unemployment is growing rapidly along with the threat of people losing their homes. Alongside this the population is growing increasingly angry. ... read full story / add a comment |
