After realizing it's been "Myra's" fault all along, "Baxter" <baxter.spamblock@baxcode.com> said: >``And one of the people who stopped our attempt to stop Enron accounting was >made chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission,'' Clinton said. >``That is a fact; an indisputable fact.'' Is? Hehe. I guess it depends on what your definition of is, is....... And it wasn't Enron accounting that brought the company down. It was the calling in of loans made to the company. The principals of the loan, simply chickened out. The issue of accounting practices is simply due to the investor confidence they generated. Period. Their accounting practices HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FINANCIAL STABILITY OF ENRON. The problem of financial stability with Enron, lied SOLEY within their ability to manage debt. Which would have been fine, except particular loans were accepted which had terms which allowed the loans to be called, AT ANY TIME. It's as though an average joe or jane found a lender for 1 million dollars and instead of a fixed point of payoff, they had to pay the balance on demand and the principal lender called the loan, before such a payout could be realized. Anyone, would go bankrupt under such conditions. For my money, it was a set up from the get go. Someone wanted to take down Enron. This is, financial terror. We are being attacked, on the Wall Street battleground. I don't know much about the Worldcom fallout. I haven't heard as much detail. However, I truly doubt Enron had any financial problems at all, if given proper notice and time to pay their debts, in regards to "un-scheduled" loans. Thus, Enron was conned. Not the public. Well, except in terms of hiding actual risk. But then when you have risks that aren't tangible, ie having loans made to you that don't have a specific payout period, you seemingly have room to play with. But then a good accountant is always going to advise on the worst case scenario. "Uh, if these people call you up tomorrow and demand their money......."
