Hmmm...I wonder if they consider white collar crime to be executives being payed an exorbitant bonus while the rank and file are layed off, profits fall, and the stock drops ???

The Chinese government only got excited because it was their money that got misappropriated. If those involved had pirated someone else's money or property they wouldn't even have investigated it.

Also, if we hotly pursued and executed white collar criminals, would there be anyone left to finance our political candidates...? :eek:
