Reply #42: A 40-year old who gets scammed by some operative is also not a child.

The age is irrelevant. Especially when it comes to bankers, not just door-to-door magazine swindlers or Nigerians, people tend to trust those in positions of power. Big mistake, of course. But the system is set up to train people to believe that those in power are legitimate and trustworthy. Bosses and bankers. I don't blame the naive for being victimized by those in power. It happens every day that we acquiesce to the status quo. It's not much different than the great majority of us accepting the fact that the top 0.1% have as much to spend for feeding and stroking themselves as the "bottom" 50% of the people combined. (Numbers guessed, but not far off)
