Scott, as Pogo said, "We has seen the enemy, and it is us!" That paper mill operator really put a face on the enemy...it is greed. I have seen that face in my shaving mirror.

Just as greed clouded my vision and kept me from selling my several thousand sh QCOM on 1/3/00, greed kept the paper mill C.E.O. from taking the long term view that without those on the machinery floor, that mill would not have survived through depression, etc. Greed causes most congressmen and, yes, some presidents, and others in high places to think more highly of themselves than they should...that their personal career is more important than serving others and their country...

Thanks for digging out all your articles...jj

those who control creation of currency will be corrupted
that goes for UScurrency and corporate currency (stock shares)

avarice? yes
Congress votes itself raises, votes its constituents pork programs

company execs vote themselves obscene stock option packages

FedReserve votes annual monetary printing
they assume impunity

but the Laws of Economics are extreeeeeeemely unkind
violate them for three decades, and you invite calamity

welcome to the 1st inning of calamity
