You know, I agree it wasn't morally fair but, after watching the news program about the Madoff scam and who was affected I couldn't help but think "Why would people and organizations put so much trust in one man with their life savings?". There is only one answer, the seven deadly sins;

Lust, Gluttony, Greed (guaranteed 19% return), Sloth, Wrath, Envy and Pride.

Maybe this country needs a little moral adjustment by the seven deadly contrary virtues;

Chastity, Temperance, Diligence, Patience, Kindness and Humility.

Just my thoughts.
