Barbara Langer welcomes your comments at graceflo@ameritech.net. She authored: 'No Recourse:' The price of securities deregulation is rapacious financial practices, phony audits and a sham SEC,' and 'Buy Low. Sell High:' The securities and accounting industries have paid $32.3 million to Congress to keep those $4.75 trillion bubbles coming. A regiment of similar, industry sponsored bills I call 'Attack of the Clones' will make things worse. Taxpayers and investors can fight back by asking Congress to denounce the clones and sponsor the practical solutions I am proposing.

Debunking Senator Sarbanes' Accounting 'Reform Bill, its Amendments, and their clones in the House, is available in the Guest Commentary Section of www.prudentbear.com. It includes the text of the Federal Bureau of Investor-Taxpayer Protection Establishment Act draft bill.
