"They're brilliant kids who built an empire in a way, and now they're being persecuted, because they did something to me that was very American." - Ben Mezrich
Very American, Ben? You mean facilitate convicted felons, known scumbags, and engaged in business practices that enabled executives to cheat players out of millions.......all the while those who represented the company did not hold themselves accountable for lacking effective controls (and even made money off of it)?

Well, considering the corruption of shenanigans that occur on Wall St, in our Corporations, and in our Congress.....then yes, UB/AP is very "American".

But if that's the new term of being "American" - being celebrated as a scammer - then I'm not too sure I want to be a part of that.

When I first heard of this, I was glad the concept of the book is being written, so that the story gets out ehre........but if the guy is just going to make it out to be some capitalistic rags-to-riches romantic novel, without detailing all of the scamming that AP/UB did.......that would be quite disgusting, IMO.

People just have no shame, man.
