You have no idea how big Enron was; there was a time in Doha Qatar we couldn't even book a hotel room in any decent joint without having to be Enron employees or affiliates. Imagine booking the hotel rooms of an entire country. Fucking oath, it doesn't get any more gangsta than that :-P
- pyre 17y agoThe irony is that the same execs in Enron that were committing outright fraud,lying,stealing,cheating... probably would have look down on 'gangsters' as 'scum'.
- mahmud 17y agothe pecking order of criminals is such that, everyone looks down on the crimes of those beneath them in revenue. the top dogs don't even break any laws; they dictate constitutions to permit their crimes.
- pyre 17y agoMaybe I should have been more clear. I think that the Enron execs probably thought that what they were doing was legal or gray area but not illegal. The irony is them looking down on gangsters as 'criminals' while viewing their own criminal actions -- which were not much different, only at a higher level -- as acceptable.
