A businessman making investment decisions doesn't know what Congress is going to do a year or two down the line making today's investment decisions worthless.

Thus all the accounting troubles of today. Government creates the maze and when it is successfully navigated, the rules are changed to punish those who were too clever. That is not to defend any of the real crooks that will be uncovered, but there will be a lot that did no worse than game the system well to do thier jobs to maximize profits. The line is now being redrawn where the 'drawers' (politicians who want to be reelected) think it now has to be to keep thier jobs.

Merci for the ping. WW is probably my favorite commentators. He is so plain spoken and a great guardian of the Constitution.

I hate to say it, but ever since the Clintons, and the degradation of the term, "rule of law," I still shudder when I see those words.

Bump.

Though there have been some inconsistencies in the rule of law, nothing else does more to ensure a civilized society.
