I disagree. It does have to do with things that matter. We start with him, and we move on. If he is a non issue, what does enron matter? Enron is just about money. He is about the values of a country. Once we decide about him, IMO it enables us to decide about other things. He personally is a pissant in the scheme of things. But what happens to him isn't. If he hasn't done anything wrong, then what can anyone do that is wrong?

Worry about the greediness that led a great many hardworking folk to lose all their money in the Enron disaster. Of course, some of the over-concentration of 401Ks in one stock vs. diversifying has an element of greed to it as well. Greed is normal, but like all things, excess sucks. Dishonesty, deception and potential law violations, as well as the possibility of a need for stricter laws.... these are the culprits deserving attention. But that won't cost me any sleep (who sleeps? <GG>).
