So if one of my partners malpractices and screws someone out of their life savings, the rest of us shouldn't enjoy a nice meal on the firm after our monthly meeting? Didn't it say these people on the retreat weren't involved?

I wouldn't be so quick to dogpile.

You may be right, but it was politically very unwise.

Regardless of whether the trip was appropriate, it was horrible PR.

The company they work for just got an $85B bailout. Nobody in the world is going to give a crap about what subsidiary of that company these people work for. These are some stupid ass people.

The French deserve blame for a lot of things but not that.

It was at the St Regis Monarch Beach here in South County.

It was all over the local news yesterday and cameras were there live.

What a joke.

Throw them all in jail.

I apologize for unfairly questioning your honesty as an empiricist.

I dont like this new, meek POO.

Show some spine. Too much groveling and apologizing over the past couple of days.

You are an economist, for crying out loud. Act like one!
