[Nettime-bold] ENRON.gov

[bc <human@electronetwork.org>]

  [article from salon.com. at least one of the US admin's enron-related
  people stepped out of the spotlight and quit their .gov posts weeks prior
  to the public outing of Enron's misdeeds. not one newspaper article makes
  any link between the Enron fiasco and the connections to the current US.gov.
  likewise, it will be interesting to see if Enron's SEC (securities 
and exchange
  commission) investigation will withhold data due to 'national 
security' issues.
  furthermore, one of the 'economic stimulus packages' presented backed by
  the US.gov was to give Enron 250 million dollars, to graciously help them out.
  note that Ken Lay, Enron's CEO, has been guiding US Energy Policy thus far,
  behind closed doors. it is unlikely there will be any investigative reporting.
  hope is that the US.gov will rethink/reexamine a policy that has public
  integrity, or face a furious political clash, as this is only a dead-ender.]

Will Bush be tarnished by Enron's collapse?
