I think for the most part that the term "successful criminals" is an oxymoron. Some of the things they do are just hilarious. Our local paper has stupid criminal stories almost everyday although they aren't titled that.
While some of the more affluent in this country think they are being taxed to excess,even to say we are bordering on socialism,the cultural decline is accelerating.
These guys suffer from acute Romney-lite delusions. Taxes are at historical lows, all income growth accrues to the top 5%, wages as share of GDP are at all time low, and profits are at record high. As an abstract category of fellow citizens, I think these guys are beyond pathetic. If I met a real specimen in a bar, I would probably have a drink and enjoyable discussion and we'd be best friends. Hell, I may even have a few in my circle of friends.
