    Throughout this entire ordeal I kept wondering just who is profitting off his financial mess, because its impossible that some people are not.....then we get wind of the hedge fund managers sucking the life out of companies by short selling.

    LOL, like this makes socialists look smarter than company -sucking neocons.

    short selling is not illegal and it is not what caused this mess. the hedge fund managers saw the financial companies ing up big time and put their money where their convictions were. they saw ed up and and bet that those companies were going down. nothing wrong with betting a company is going to fail when you see it overleveraging itself or making a ton of bad loans.
