They're really reaching however, with some of those stories. Ie, the guy in SoCal that was printing money successfully for quite a long time and brought in like 2 or 3 more guys to help. They got away with it for some time and were finally busted. That different from our Govt printing money on a whim, all the time.
Sure, theres a few stories about crooked Dr's and this and thats. Their mostly all the same story though. People getting in over their head and running minor ponzi schemes. Again, they should do a show focusing purely on the greed and actions of those working within our govt and what they're up to and how they all became so goddamn rich they just decided one day, "hey, i'll run for some form of office since I'm bored".
