Cheating isn't Reserved for just Wall Street at 2006-03-09 21:54:05
I hate to admit it, but as more and more people try and attain wealth and greatness, the level of cheating continues to rise.
I picked up a book written by David Callahan called "The Cheating Culture". In the book, Callahan documents how American values have changed, and how people have become more selfish and cutthroat in their quest to get ahead.
I guess the public has learned a thing or two from Wall Street.
One of the sadest cases is the steroid scandals in baseball. Until yesterday, the media has basically given Barry Bonds a free pass while the attacks on others have escalated.
Here is a picture of Bonds before the steroid accusations, and here is a picture of Bonds the year he hit 73 homeruns. You can make up your own mind.
