Corporate Crime

The gigantic transfer of wealth to the wealthy continues. From commondreams:

Plastics

The idea that the Skilling/Lay trial in Houston is the peak of the most recent "wave" of corporate crime is a fantasy.

The wave has not peaked.

And so we update that scene from the movie The Graduate where the older guy whispers into a young Dustin Hoffman the one word he believes is the future -- "plastics."

We look into our crystal ball and whisper into the ears of all young reporters, prosecutors, investors, and lawyers -- "corporate crime."
