I think I understand it. The government may have flows. Regardless, those flaws don’t change the fact that private companies are typically in the wrong.
I agree.
The lawyers who I’ve read/listened to about this stuff have mentioned that their are plenty of parties who did wrong things in a bad government process. An example mentioned was the Enron case. I know nothing about the case and in the particular book I read it was just mentioned as an example of a popular case where prosecutors did bad stuff. From Conviction Machine: Standing Up to Federal Prosecutorial Abuse :
“Many people have heard the adage: “A prosecutor can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich.” That proved true most recently when Robert Mueller’s handpicked team of legal eagles indicted a Russian company that did not exist.1 The special counsel also indicted a Russian company on “unprecedented” charges, meaning, in plain speak, the prosecutors made up a crime—again.2 It happened many times in the Enron case (as described in detail in Licensed to Lie). ”
I don’t think the authors ever necessarily defend Enron on stuff they did. Well, correction. I have not read any of Sidney Powell’s works and she wrote Licensed to Lie. I have read Harvey Silverglates books (the other author of Conviction Machine) and from what I can remember he didn’t necessarily defend Enron.
What should do I about footnotes when copying and pasting? Should I try and edit the quote to make it look exact to the original? Here’s what the quoted part normally looks like:
