There's no question shareholders got screwed. There's no question accounting games were played. There's no question executives tried to buy political favors. The rest is pure speculation. Frankly, this bonus plan is pretty standard IMO. Their stock quadrupled AS I TOLD YOU A LITTLE WHILE AGO. People get paid a lot for adding shareholder value, so I see nothing here. Nothing. Again. Accounting games were played, but were they illegal? So far, I haven't seen a statute that was violated. The off-shore partnership received SEC waivers in 1995. Anderson surely seems to have done something illegal, but what, shredding documents? Only if those documents were relevant to the investigation - and that hasn't been determined yet. Ken Lay didn't cash out. And none of his trades look suspicious. None. They bought influence from Clinton. This is not illegal either, as we found out from Loral. So, to get back to the original allegation, Enron is not about Big Business screwing workers. Far from it. Pal.
