You think any of these guys looked at what happened in 2008 and thought, "Boy, those guys really were crooks and bought the country a helluva catastrophe. We should learn from them and not do that ourselves." Nope, I guarantee you the first thoughts among the people who thought up this scam for the insurance companies was, "Holy crap, look at the dough those guys made!" And I guarantee you those same people all got raises. The upper levels of American capitalism is so rotten with amorality, so utterly devoid of any conventional sense of ethics, let alone social responsibility, that it hardly seems worth pointing it out any more. Congratulations to America's graduate schools of business. You have bred three generations of vampires to feed on the rest of us. It's as though every medical school in the country adopted the basic approach to thoracic surgery of Sweeney Todd and married it to the economic philosophy of Bialystock And Bloom.He is talking about the insurance industry, which has recently been discovered to have been using complex accounting tricks to boost their apparent assets and revenue.
If the Banksters had been sent to a "federal pound me in the ass prison," these insurance executives would have thought twice before engaging in accounting fraud.
