Funny.

I was watching a piece on CNBC about how much of a double standard we have... pensions funds can't buy certain bonds because of risk factors... but you can buy stocks that have the same exact risk profile or worse - hell, they can buy those same bonds leveraged - but you're ok because you can call it a stock.

Batty.
