Christopher Cox, the 28th head of the Securities and Exchange Commission, knows that most Americans trust the governmentt and believe that their rules are constructed to protect them, the small investors.

Sad misconception.

Cox knows exactly what is happening. That is why he is were he is.

He was appointed by that paragon of free markets, George W. Bush, on June 2, 2005, and unanimously confirmed by the Senate on July 29, 2005. (Most Congressmen are millionaires, not when they arrived in D.C., but soon afterwards, and so have a use for Hedge Funds.) He was sworn in on Aug. 3, 2005. If you go to their website you will find that the focus under Cox is on, "the needs of individual investors."

For "individual investor," think over $1,000.000.

You can keep your measly little savings in the ol’ mustard jar.

As we noticed with George W., his "core constituency" is not the little old Republican lady living on her Social Security who worked, believed, and voted for him. The "Core" folks are those who can afford to become Pioneers ($250,000) or Rangers ($100,000).

However, that does not mean you need to feel left out. George and Chris have plans for you, plans that include having you continue into slavery.

We have an alternative plan that we think you will prefer.

While Bush and his friend Chris call this, "investment," what it actually should be called is racketeering, and it’s being carried out as a conspiracy to defraud the public at large. That makes it a felony, a multi-count felony. So our plan is to sort of clean up the marketplace so that honest people can return America to a very different model for business.

We have begun writing a bill and are now looking for a sponsor to carry it through Congress. You are probably thinking, "Yea, right! Those crooks?" But right now Bush is teetering with everyone; more than 50% of Americans now favor impeachment, so this is the perfect time to get legislation passed. The bill includes the removal of Chris, demands true business transparency, and new rules for stock trading, hedge funds, PIPES, and opening up real investments that could earn the blessing of Mother Theresa instead of the envy of Al Capone.

See, we knew you would like it. Soon, you, an American who can’t afford to join a Hedge Fund will be free from the plantation of GREED, having ridden the Underground Railroad to a very different America. Welcome home.
