    Moronic article written by a clueless moron talking to other morons.

    "Denver-area certificates of deposit are yielding 'unheard of' rates,
    Colorado bankers say"

    "Colorado's most prominent banks are advertising certificates of deposit
    with a 3% annual return on investment."

    A 3% CD rate is a huge ripoff.

    Anyone can get 3.77% in a Schwab money market fund. 26 and 52 week T
    bills are 4.66%. 12 month brokered CDs are 4.90%.

    'unheard of' rates is utter nonsense. CD rates hit 18% between 1980 and
    1982.

    I'm sure these morons have never heard of Paul Volcker.
