How much have Enrons political connections influenced U.S. energy policy?
Imagine America as an elementary school and its energy policy as a game of kickball. Then imagine yourself as the referee of this game. Along come to the two teams–one made up of budding environmentalists, and the other, would-be Enron executives. The environmentalists are very cranky, and when they kick a foul ball, they cry their eyes out if you count it against them. The Enron executives, on the other hand, pad your Swiss bank account and arrange for you to have sex with the supermodel of your choice. Which team are you going to let win the game?
