Enron Higher ups made record earnings for themselves, record bonuses and perks while they shafted the workers and cooked the books.

Yes. The officers did these things. They did them, not the corporation. They got caught and deserve the punishment they get.

Here was the rest of my post:391

I love that you guys think the government can fix the "fair trade" problem or the outsourcing problem.Government will always lose to the corporations. And if the government ever wins the collateral damage will hurt far more of the little people than will be helped.

Did the government beat Microsoft in the bid anti-trust case from a few years back?

Did that really help the little people?

The government will lose whenever it goes up against the corporations because it is going up against the market.

You know, the market. Millions of people and companies making millions of transactions everyday.

Jimmy Carter restricted oil company profits in the 70's. Did the government win? Did it help the little people?

Yeah, gas lines and fuel shortages. Victory!!!

The government caused the outsourcing problem by a treaty and dissolving prior trade laws. All they have to do is reverse that. And, yes, they can do it. You act like it just created itself.
