Lynch...tar....feather!

Side note: Did anybody read the story about how his organization managed to evade discovery all this time. The auditing company changed auditors numerous times in order to disrupt continuity. Something tells me this was more than a one-organization scheme. After all we're talking about billions upon billions of dollars...you can't just hide that under your shirt. I'll bet the deeper they dig the more they're going to uncover. This could be the tip of the iceburg.

i feel sorry for his situation but it is pure and simple greed. At some point one should be content with the money they have, at that age why does he need more than just relaxing and enjoying the simpler things in life with the days he has left...seesh!

Maybe it was ment to leave for his kids and grand children and not for him self...at least he isn't whining but working at the age of 90, isn't that incredible!
