JOSEPH SHERESHEVSKY, andSTEVEN BYERS trouble was that they were small time, they only defrauded people out of $7,875,334.10. They committed a crime and now they are going to have to do hard time. You have to defraud people out of trillions of dollars to get off scot-free, be to big to fail, and have the Government loan you billions of dollars to keep you out of bankrupt court. In crime like every thing else you have to think big.

...and use the puppets in Congress to protect your 'interest'.. so some day they can become big and strong, and sidestep paying taxes.
