***And yet, earlier you acknowledge the possibility that it is NOT a scam.
We are getting near the point where we learn whether:
1) Rossi has literally changed the world forever and for good. Id put that on my C.V. if I were him
2) Rossi has had good intentions but was blinded by test bias where he saw what he was looking for.
3) Rossi deliberately set out to scam people.
While I believe #3 is the answer, to carry out a scam of this magnitude would be as amazing as a working Ecat.
I said I believe it's a scam. I also said that carrying out a scam of this magnitude would be as amazing as a working ECAT and I mean that. There are a lot of people involved but that doesn't mean the Ecat works. Enron was the same way, they had a beautiful home office, high stock prices but it was all on paper. Bad as Enron and Aurthur Andersen's accounting was, it was perfect compared to Rossi, he might as well write his results on a napkin, you'd still believe.
Did Bernie Madoff work in a vacuum, no. He convinced enough people that he was able to scam BILLIONS.
I noticed you are unable to answer anything I said in post 247. Where are all of Rossi's factories, how many have burned down and what was he making?
How long have you been up?
Where did I acknowledge it wasn’t a scam?
***You acknowledged the possibility it wasn’t a scam. I write that a second time to see if it gets through.
That way the main part of the business seemed to be quite substantial and secure.
If you are going to compare an activity to Enron you have to show us how that same sort of "two fer" situation is structured.
Even Bernie Madoff didn't have such a deal ~ for all we know he may have taken deposits and bought offshore Enron debt.
So far all Rossi has sold is a PRODUCT. There's no indication he's taken on investors, nor has he offered to sell stock. Either the product works or it doesn't.
BTW, Aaron's Rents/Aaron's Sells is America's largest employer (by percentage of work force) of released felons. The only requirement is that they must have had successful employment in a prison furniture making operation.
We needed some new furniture at work so I did some consulting with the experts at Aaron's. They said "You need to Talk to Unicor. We ultimate took delivery of it straight from the prisons where it was made by, among other folks, Michael Milken the Junk Bond King so well known for ripoffs back in the 1989s.
Milken was trusted with the use of scissors ~ something you can't trust your average federal prisoner to not try to steal. He got to cut the cloth. Every chair we received was manufactured perfectly with no errors of any kind.
I'd say Michael did good work and was remarkably reliable.
Crooks can rehab.
So, anyway, what is your problem with people who've beaten the rap (on 45 out of 50 charges BTW) and were convicted of only 5 technical offenses?
