The SEC chairperson is  a presidential appointment. Has the SEC person who buried the  red flags been looked at in terms of legal accountability?  Matt Taibbi from Rolling Stone has been writing about financial corruption for years and traces much of the 2008 crash to SEC corruption. This system of  unimpeachable high paid "watchdogs" like the FISA courts, the security agency watchdogs and the SEC have come to serve more as a protective barrier for legal and political accountability.
