"Ken Lay did not destroy many lives - he destroyed one life: his own. Anyone who claims that Ken Lay destroyed his life is a loser with zero sense of personal responsibility."

Would you be taking the same stance if your job, your pension and your life savings were wiped out by the fraudulent actions of a few people?

My job, my retirement package and my life savings cannot be wiped out by any one person's fraud because, while I may be stupid, I am not stupid enough to put all my eggs in one basket.

Anyone who worked at Enron and had all their savings invested in Enron stock was being reckless and irresponsible with their own future.

No one held a gun to their heads.
