    That greed allows you to finance a car, a home, to go to college, to provide venture capital to innovative companies, fuels pension and retirement funds... It's a necessary evil that enriches some and bankrupt others...

    Isn't it coincidental that the Oliver Stone film was released that year and it was oh so true? Michael Douglas's character of Gordon Gekko idolized Ivan Boesky is spot on! - "Greed is good!"

    Ironically, Boesky's investors did fairly well because his firm closed up before the October '87 crash.

    Unsound money and fractional reserve banking lead our society to overfinancialization where those who produce no value make the most off the society.

    No he as not. Giuliani made false accusation against him and forced him to pleaded guilty. Milken pleaded because federal prosecutors essentially took hostages. First, they aimed their guns at Milken’s 92-year-old grandfather, threatening to prosecute him. Then they indicted Milken’s brother, Lowell. However, they promised Michael that if he pleaded guilty, they would drop the charges against his brother and not prosecute his grandfather. As Giuliani would quip, “A brother for a brother.”

    Earlier GME was the tracking stock for EDS after it was acquired by GM. EDS was originally taken public, and to the moon, by Ken Langone who is still around.
