> And I'm saying wallstreet has a reputation of breaking the rules.

Among whom does wall street hold this reputation? Breaking which rules? How can that be, in an incredibly regulated industry where the government will try to put you in prison for just breathing? As they're doing to Andrew Left right now.

As far as I can tell, this is only a commonly held opinion among people whose primary source of knowledge on wall street is a DiCaprio movie. Rules are broken everywhere in the world, but nowhere do you have as many controls to prevent that as on wall street.

There's a reason why just about everyone with significant amounts of money trusts US financial infrastructure, fraud and rulebreaking is uncommon.
