Re: Bye
Because it’s a corporation, and it’s easier to go after it. AND remember that Scott was a CEO, not a Republican per se. So they did what they always do. But the corporation had to jettison Scott, because they knew he was the one responsible. So they gave him a boatload of cash and the boot.
And that made him a hero to people like you even though he engineered the biggest theft in history at that time. That kinda guy is someone who is a hero to guys like you.
