You make it sound like it's wrong to ask that others be stopped from violating the law to one's detriment. It's not. If somebody were violating your rights (e.g. trespassing) you would be entirely justified to seek the help of the police rather than engaging in self help. I think there's still a big question whether Enron management violated laws in more than a minor / technical way; my understanding continues to be that their accounting schemes were considered acceptable by both their accountants and lawyers. There's little doubt that Enron managment (intentionally) "pushed the envelope" of business practices, including on the accounting side, but I think they were entitled to rely on the opinions of expert consultants in technical aspects of accounting and law. That's not a legal opinion, of course -- for that, consult your attorney (see what I mean?)! JMHO. Charles Tutt (SM)
