clinton knew that there was corruption in corporate america. he also knew that if he did something about it then the stock market would make a significant correction. when people see their portfolio values disappear, they are less willing to be taxed and in fact cap gains tax disappear. both of the latter dry up funds for the socialist society that the dems want.
and i did not even mention the impact it would have had on the 2000 elections.
As Secretary of the Treasury, Rubin--and by extension, Clinton--was ultimately in charge of the SEC that refused to prosecute--or even aggressively investigate--rampant Corporate Corruption. This is a Dereliction of Duty, IMHO...is Dereliction of Duty a prosecutable crime?! If so, Rubin ought to have the book thrown at him, as, of course, should Janet Reno.
