Interesting comparison…first this…
en.wikipedia.org

Then this….
en.wikipedia.org

Then insert the words below into Google or other search engines…Seems like several others over the years have made the same comparison…
>>>>>GE compared to I.G. Farben cartel<<<<<

But along those lines, do you think there is a comparison to be made between Madolf and his machinations, or ENRON, and theirs…to the current Health Care Bill headed to the President's desk on Tuesday…For instance, how does one take (pick a number) $500,000,000,000 OUT of a Government Program (that already is in the hole for overpromised dollars to the tune of Trillions)…put that $500,000,000,000 into another Government Program…and call it saved money????

Are Ponzi just fine as long as the Government is doing it? Doesn't anyone (except some Republicans) EVER call attention to this kind of stupidity, to say nothing about illegality???

Sure wish I could do that in my own checkbook…
