    Seems to me that the wealthier they are, the less morality they have.

    Can you ever remember a time , when Laws were so simple , so straightforward , that a specialist was not required ? Moses , perhaps ? Just curious.

    read and re-read and re-read the story of sodom & gommorah

    then look at the direction of this country, that will show you where our morals have gone

    Never had a problem when I was growing up.

    No amount of money is worth going to jail.

    I can think , right offhand , of a half- dozen ways to to answer your post , and every one would be justified , but also get into an argument , with you , or someone else.
    Leaving the politics , and resentment against the rich , out of it , did not God command " thou shalt not steal " ?
    Isn't that all that's necessary ?

    You are right. But, the lesson there is not to repeat it. We have to Try.

    It is not political or resentment.

    I am only making a statement. I have seen where the poorest person finds a wallet with money and turns it in and then you see where a wealthy person like those we are discussing want even more at whatever it takes.

    They have been getting down the road for many years. Far from the way I was raised.

    True. And I recall a wealthy Banker , who three times won the lottery , and gave All of it to Charity. He just said he played for the fun of it, didn't need the money.
    All rich people are not crooks , just as all poor people are not crooks.
    Publicity like this is bad for business. Period. I understand why they are trying to mitigate it , and I also know that if there are also crimes that have been committed , those that committed them will pay , twice over.
    Whether in the civil courts , or elsewhere. No One is exempt from Justice.
    They Will Pay.
    Meantime, I see the the Pilots/Js are still plenty busy.
