Then you had bettter get on the case of the Houston firm that gave us Enron. etc. There are some of who think that Congress is not the principal criminal class in the United States.

I'm not a partisan of: A) the legal profession; B) Enron; or C) Congress. As a Texan once joked to me, "The only organized crime in Texas happens in the chambers of the Texas State Legislature, and actually [dramatic pause and Texas-style good ol' boy chuckle] it's not fair to call that organized!"

I would add that more crime goes on at Scholz's than in the legislature. My limited experience tells me that compared with the small businessmen in that town, the politicians are saints.
