Enron, the declinign of Morals? Prosecute those bastards!

I dont get this. Enron guys lied about everything and now their company is bankrupt.
Most of their employees all had stocks in Enron. Ok, how can you be bankrupt when the top of Enron executives got 100s of millions of dollars. That is not bankrupcy!

Here is an idea. PAY to the people you owe with your own money. IF I was the prez, I would force those scumbags to give people their money! ANd who cares I already got elected and sport high approval rating.


This sucks. Rich people get richer, poor people get poorer. AND THOSE SAME RICH PEOPLE claim that it is unfair for them.

Oh my god! I gonna pull my hair now... O wait. I just got haircut yesterday. cant grab my hair!

Too bad you weren't born into the former Soviet Union, or Socialist Germany, LOL...

Seriously, though, I believe in holding those Enron executives responsible for the LYING, not the demise of the company, accountable. When you take stock options instead of cash as a bonus, or part of a retirement plan, YOU ARE TAKING THE INHERENT risk that all investors take! NOTE: I am not "defending" anyone...

If you had not spouted all that whiny liberal bullshit at the bottom of your post, I wouldn't have even bothered replying...

Quit your bitching, get a job, invest wisely, and then tell me that the "rich getting richer" is a bad thing...There will always be poor people, because most people are just plain lazy and stupid--it's the top 1% of this country (financially, intellectually, etc.) that move it...control it...and keep it on top--not the bottom 99%. Stop jading yourself!!

True that there will always be poor people. "rich getting richer" is not a bad thing either, agreed. HOwever, many of the 'little guys' who held stock in the enron incorporation had their life savings taken away from them. Imagine having 250,000 dollars in your portfolio one day and then when you go into work the next day the balance is 0 dollars. How would you feel?
These people who lost their money will get it back. there will be tons of law suits and millions will be made.
Have you noticed what has happened to the market? that inherent risk that you speak of has plummeted investor confidence. People want to believe that they can trust that the company they are investing in is being honest with their statistics and earnings. They lied. Good for them that they made off with millions. HOwever, the people who were robbed should be compensated.

No one was robbed. The heads at Enron were pretty damned smart, business-wise. For those who dont get the scandal, below is a link that tells about it and some commentary, including why you shouldnt feel sorry for Enron employees.
