  • Maria, I love your show. Last week your show show cased more regulation by the SEC due to the recent crises. Instead I would love to see your show talk about how CEO's and board of directors have protected themselves with multi million dollar pay offs for failing to run their companies at a profit. Where should the responsibility be?
