To: "Martin Lee Schoffstall" <schoff@psi.com> Cc: Everyone else lurking on Com Priv <com-priv@psi.com> In-Reply-To: Your message of Sat, 27 Nov 93 19:34:53 -0500. Date: Fri, 03 Dec 93 10:44:04 -0500 From: Richard Mandelbaum <rma@photon.poly.edu> I think that is a fine thread for a discussion. Why career accountants are less "bad' than career government types. We should all recall taht J.Edgar though accountancy was a good background for G-men. I would venture to guess that more havoc has been wrought by accountants than by M-16s ____________________ Hate to break it to you Marty ol' boy, :) but the Federal Government has given the Generally Accepted Accounting Practices and the rules set u p by the Accounting Board the force and effect of law. As it stands, the GAAP and other rules are as much "involuntary regulation" as anything crea ted by a government agency. Living down here beside Babylon on the Potomac there is a clear differ ence The people who rule on GAAP are neither career nor politically appoint ed bureaucrats In addition they don't have a law enforcement section that totes M16's .
