Hedge Fund Billionaires

We (USA) now have 500 multi-Billionaires ( a thousand millions for you non-engineers).
The majority of them have been created by Wall Street, NYC, trading in hedge funds.
Many billionaires last year were created by hedge funds short selling sub-prime credit! (Look it up)
Speaking of an unfettered redoubt, this is it. No real contribution to our nation involved. Some suckers got took by the same amount---it had to come to them from somewhere!
The sad part is that much of that fortune will be invested in other countries.
Many of you out there do not care about this robber "barony!" It took a great Republican (Theodore) to stop such thievery about a hundred years ago.

Take some interest in such things, it is your country.

I tried to tell you long ago---see above!

Since it is a slow afternoon and "Git" is MIA, I'll ask the question. What's the correlation between these terrible and vile billionaires and TR's trust busting fight?
