most of my illegal activity is not of the white collar variety, just harmless, delinquent type fun -g- When I worked for someone, I spent 3/4 of my day trading stocks and doing research so yes, I was stealing from my employer, even using their resources to my own ends on a daily basis. But that's mickey mouse stuff, we're talking here about a business built on taking other people's money...can you think of a business that would engender more devious, illegal behavior? You telling me you think that stock brokers, bankers, and traders are generally an honest bunch? When their jobs are on the line, they would not steal from a client, front run, etc. rationalize their activity as semi-legal so that even if they are not a "bad person" they will do it? People at publicly traded companies don't call their friends giving them inside information? My assumption is just an extrapolation of what I have witnessed firsthand...you need to move out of Kansas. do you think I'm just confusing human nature with my own? -g- I don't think so we might as well stop arguing, you're not going to convince me and I think you are either being purposefully naive or just live on a different planet.
