<span style="color: #660000">This story is one that repeats itself from generation to generation...the powerful and mighty take the wealth from the poorer and weaker, usually claiming that they were entitled to it.
A poor man steals a small sum of money from one person, and he is thought of as the 'bane' of society. A rich man defrauds a blue-chip company, leaving it bankrupt, employees out of work, and their savings wiped out. Usually the failure of a blue chip can also help to break an economy.
Yet with all this it is always the poor man stealing a few dollars getting the bad publicity, the rich man gets some publisher to ask him for 'book rights', and pay him royalty from the proceeds, in addition to movie rights royalties...
Hmmm...think I'll get rich and....</span>
