I dunno. When the scams get revealed in the stock market they tank the global economy. The composite risk assessment for the stock market is thusly somewhat higher imo

Now this is a disingenuous redefinition of scam.
What would you call bundling subprime mortgage backed securities and reselling them, while knowing full well that they're toxic?

Just because everyone is in on the scam, doesn't make it not a scam. It just makes it a systemic scam.
