WorldCom Fraud Doubles

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the jail-jail-jail-jail-jail-jail-jail dept.

Silvaran writes "No, this isn't a repeat story. WorldCom claims another $3.3 billion accounting error. That's about $7 billion, for those that are counting. Wish I had that kind of cash to miscalculate on my income tax forms." There's also a NYT story. I love how the news outlets are saying, "error", "irregularity", "problem", as if this was all some sort of tragic accident, instead of laying out the obvious truth, "criminal fraud committed with full knowledge it was a crime".

    Anyone who dresses as a hollow corporate clone is a SLAVE. People should begin emancipating themselves from the corporate mindset.
