Matt Taibbi is just about the only reporter out there covering (a) the recent criminal doings on Wall Street that will likely go unprosecuted and (b) the tactics that you'd think would be illegal — and perhaps were at one time — but aren't. I'm not sure which category is more outrageous. I think what most bothers me is this notion some people seem to have that it's wrong for the government to ever stop anyone from making vast sums of money even if the way they make them are to steal them from someone else. If you want to get mad today, read the linked article by Taibbi.
