Time and time again we have seen Wall Street companies being ousted for their fraudulent business practices. Just last week five Wall Street banks were charged with a $5 billion dollar fine for rate rigging. It seems as if every financial company is secretly out to get the consumer making it more important than ever […]
Pencils don’t write papers, spoons don’t make you fat and guns don’t kill people. People do all of these things. Similarly, a tax ID number and a logo cannot commit a crime, only people can.
