You're being naïve again. When an auditor is sent in to a corporation. He or she have several alternatives. 1. If they have no family and are not scared of persecution, they can make waves. 2. If they have family and need the job, they can hope that nobody will notice. 3. If they do the right thing, their superiors, both the company they're auditing and the company that they work for will put pressure on them.
Until we can find a way to keep whistleblowers safe, then this stuff will happen, which is why a publicly traded company has to declare their books. I don't have an answer as to the best solution, but I still believe in right over wrong and good versus evil.

Just adding: the Enron guys got caught because they were so arrogant and totally blinded by greed that they insanely built an empire on top of lies and deficitary operations. How could they succeed for such a long time is an indication that they system really doesn't work. If Enron had a real cash generating business, perhaps even a mediocre one, they could possibly still be there, showing fake gigantic profits while diverting investors money to their pockets. Exception made to Arthur Andersen, most of other companies that participated in the scandal in one way or another are still there. Probably they're still lobbying for a complete deregulated economy convincing naive average americans that it's a good thing, really, to let them do whatever they want without any controls, LOL On 11/26/06, Helio W. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > You're missed the point that they were not exceptions.
