I guess the moral of the story is: passing the buck causes big problems.

A bit of bad language, but really funny, and highly educational.

Reminds me of the mindset the guys at Enron had - they were so superior, so smart. They ruined a hell of a lot of lives!

Good. Too bad, you’d think people would learn after Enron, et al.

A slightly “cleaner” version—minus the f words—could be sent to my Christian friends. ;-) Maybe they have two versions.

LOL, very good...

Don’t forget about some of the criminal mortgage brokers over the last few years who were busted for receiving kick-backs from banks for finding loans, and who basically flat-out lied to the mortgage companies about their clients without these people’s knowledge. And, who when brought to court were never made to repay anything to anyone, and received slaps on the wrists, and were allowed to reopen for business under a new name less than a year later repeating the process all over again... That’s where a lot of these sub-prime mortgages originated. Several hundred from one broker alone in Denver that I know of personally. Some of those who purchased homes in that market were victimized as well...
