Re: Yet one more company going private; out of reach of SEC

The number of non-employee investors in Enron was MUCH MUCH higher than the number of employees who were invested.

I wasn't an employee of Enron, and I didn't have my entire stock investment in Enron, but that doesn't change the fact that I lost all the money that I did have committed to it. And I lost it, not because of capricious market circumstances, but because of wrongdoing on the part of the corporate leadership.

If the captain runs the ship into an iceberg and everyone drowns, you don't blame the passengers because they didn't bring their own survival suit.

But again, doesn't this prove that people who invest should keep an eye into which companies their funds invest?
