Not saying that...

ENRON was HUGE fraud. Should some five and dimer making a mistake on what is or is not a legal expense get the same jail time??

Should either of them be equated with a rapist?

Again..if Enron criminals would pay back EVERY cent of fraudulent gain (plus an appropriate penalty), then I would support them not costing taxpayer dollars in a stupid prison.

It costs you money to keep these people in prison. If you got back your ten grand PLUS...you would be compensated. Financial harm is not the same as being knifed. People dispute financial matters in civil court every day. The one whom is "right" is the one the judge rules in favor of.

Sorry you lost that money. I lost $200,000.00 in 99. And every broker was a crook because they intentionally liquidated the market BECAUSE THEY COULD. ZERO SUM.

They made BILLIONS AND BILLIONS.

But what they did was "legal"--LOL!
