It's not as interesting a quote as "Don't look back, something might be gaining on you," but I suppose on a slow news day this might be diverting.

Let's see..
Destroy Investor confidence
Make us all fear "The next time it happens"
Jeopardize many (Financial) lives
Attack US Infastructure
Attack American money
Basically there's one difference.
They get away with it.
They get away with it because they can pay the white house off. If you can become so buddybuddy with the president that you can give him a wedgie in the oval office (Ken Lay), then you can flim-flam companies and live the good life.

To cheat on taxes is unpatriotic...to cheat on earnings reporting is unpatriotic...
The executives are getting villified publicly but not punished for what they are doing and it's screwing us all...
I hope for one of twelve things...that economic reform occurs (not with this administration), Executives are put in prison, ("A white man embezzles a quarter of a million dollars, he's asked to resign. A black steals a candy bar and gets 15 years.) or the same blind pseudo patriotic zeal will be redirected to create a backlash and the angry mobs that form will see some CEOs publicly burned...
I bet THEN we would see less of this problem...
Yes, I know that is not 12 things...if you want to know the rest buy my new book Everything You Would Want To Know If You Were Not A Dillweed .....
