1. The Crimes Will Out

The ability of anyone, no matter how rich or powerful, to conceal indefinitely his criminality has been irreparably compromised. No amount of wallpaper can cover over the gross fraud, theft, lying, and influence buying of the modern business leaders. The Internet and the shredding of the Constitution have shown us little people that there's no value in hiding someone else's dirty linen, not any more.

Even if the power structure will not take action, the 99% is comparing notes, drawing conclusions, and making lists of the criminals and their crimes.

Since the Criminal Class seems to have no sense of propriety, moderation, or even self-preservation left, it won't be long before revolution washes them away.

Other than Corzine, this article really doesn't begin to list the worst CEOs of 2011. Where's Blankfein, Dimon, and the rest of the banksters? Where are the international Corporate Criminals?
