The question of corporate greed came up in relation to the Cantor Fitzgerald TV commercials. I’ve been thinking about this a lot this week (since I find myself blessed in a wonderful new job with a company that has ethical, Christian owners) and with companies like Enron, WorldCom, and who knows who else we don’t need terrorists to wage war against our economy. Lucky for us the US economy is more resilient than to be decimated by such corporate monkey business. Still, it makes you wonder if more Enron-like collapses do serious damage to the US economy. I hate to say this because it is against my nature, but we need more regulation. Mr. Reagan, please forgive me for saying that!
When kids can’t play together without poking each other with sharp sticks or taping the cat’s tail to the back of it’s head you have to have rules. The adult world works the same way – the stakes are just higher.
