what, pray tell me, in the end, are "toxic assets"
What brilliant but totally insane person would call a liability an asset and further assume that hiding a bit of paper in some dark corner (in exchange for another printed bit of paper) magically makes the REAL PROPERTY & CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS disappear from the face of the earth as well.
It makes a mockery of all accountancy - an outright fraud - a lie, sham a pea and 3 shell game, played infront of a gullible audience. Then it is perpetuated by the Auditors who sign off the "books" as a "true and accurate representation of the facts" further perjuring Truth.
ANY AUDITOR who plays this shell game must realise they open themselves up for class actions for being willing accessories to fraud and deceptive conduct.
