telecom debacle was 5-6 times as large as Enron
the dotcom debacle was 2x as large as Enron

the trouble is basically that US investors are clueless

no understanding of either economics or accounting
no clue as to what inflation is or where it comes from
no clue on true earnings or methods of accounting deception

a scarey article
financialsense.com
