“Because these people who are in the business of deception where their only intent and purpose in some of these business transactions is to deceive and falsify the true picture of business activity, they are not business leaders; they are, in fact, scoundrels. And what they are doing is selling short the capitalist system in America, which is the bedrock of our foundation and liberty and freedom. When they behave in that sort of way, they betray the legitimate entrepreneurs that have made America great. Those legitimate entrepreneurs are the rule, not the exception. These scoundrels are the exception. It is truly unfortunate, because this is not just about whether certain entrepreneurs and CEOs make cash; it is about making unethical, immoral decisions that threaten the jobs and livelihoods of millions of Americans; and beyond that, they imperil our capitalist system here in our country, something for which many, many Americans have dedicated their lives; and in fact, some have died in the course of preserving and protecting our way of life. It is a sacred system. It is the hope for the world, really. It has been the American system of capitalism, has been the model of freedom and prosperity that every single other country in the world looks to for leadership and guidance.”
