47. Certainly they do that.
They also like to rake in as much money from taxpayers as possible while still financing their extravagant, royal lifestyles. I'd call that theft.

In addition, they seem to like to advise their investors to take certain investments while then, using their own money, betting against their own investors to transfer their investors' money into their own bank accounts.

Another frequent scheme included bundling together junk (that they certainly know is junk), selling it to pensions, state, and local governments, and destroying the investments of many Americans and municipal governments. In other words, they are stealing from people's retirement security and robbing our governments of financial solvency.

They certainly know what they are doing. And they've seemingly gotten away with it.

They've also gotten away with fooling a heck of a lot of Americans that they haven't done anything wrong it seems.

What's happened over the past few years is the largest theft in the world's history, and the next phase of it is probably right around the corner.
