Enron? Oh, how boring. Sorry you can't seem to stay awake, but while you're sleeping, dream of this: Enron and Andersen are now the poster children for the adverse effects of deregulation, the energy business and accounting.And while Enron was paying governement officials to deregulate, they were setting up hundreds of offshore accounts to hide income and avoid taxes. How many of those accounts will comtinue to hide assets from the bankruptcy courts, or the dozens of lawsuits that are sure to follow? What controls will the accounting industry institute to make sure this never happens again? Free enterprise is supposed to create jobs, in the dreamworld of you and CYBERKEN, not destroy jobs and rip off employees of everything they have worked for. And this is all BEFORE the question of Bush/Cheney involvement is even answered. Boring, indeed.

RE:Their are certainly more pressing issues at hand than Enron. Maybe, but we pay taxes to our government to be protected not only from terrorists, but also internal criminals who break the law to steal our money. Many people's financial lives have been ruined by the lying management at Enron and Andersen. Hopefully there will be a price to pay for the perpetrators.

Their[sic] are certainly more pressing issues at hand than Enron. Yeah, go back to sleep. Nothin goin' on except six states about to sue Arthur Andersen, the head of the SEC--who used to be a lobbyist for The Big Six--having to figure out how to stop the accounting industry from double-dipping and lying, Bush's secrecy about to become a major campain issue, offshore banking laws about to be reviewed, war in Congress over hiding income overseas vs paying taxes......really dull stuff that nobody's really interested in.
