that, of course, is the philosophy of the Bush administration, which continues to give the finger to aggrieved investors and employees. Not only should World Com have not received a government contract, it should have reached a similar fate as Arthur Andersen, which took the Bush justice department a mere month to destroy. The STATES are doing most of the prosecutions in this, despite the fact that most securities laws are federal laws. Oklahoma filed criminal charges against World Com; NY sued the super brokers, when Ashcroft wouldn't touch them. I know it's aspen for the winter, but where does Kenny Lay summer?
