It is the federal government that uses Enron accounting!
I do not use Enron accounting!

The entire Social Security system is a great example
of Enron accounting! The way that the Social Security
"trust fund" is run could have been dreamed up
by Kenneth Lay or Andrew Fastow of Enron!

What happens to companies that over-expand, over-borrow,
and use corrupt Enron accounting?
They eventually fail... sooner or later...
It is better that they fail sooner than later...
The future economic losses are bigger if it takes
longer for them to fail.

The same fate awaits our corrupt Federal government.
