MORE CORPORATE SLEAZE FROM WORLDCOM
MCI accused of decade of misconduct


AP via the Houston Chronicle:

Federal prosecutors are delving into nearly a decade of alleged misconduct by MCI to determine if the telephone company defrauded competitors by disguising long-distance calls as local ones, lawyers and others familiar with the probe say.

The investigation involves MCI's alleged avoidance of charges it is supposed to pay local phone companies.


Democrat or Republican, it doesn't matter. As long as money rules American politics, the fox is guarding the henhouse. If politicians have such close ties with and dependencies on big ass corporations, how the hell can government ever possibly be trusted to police business?

Answer: they can't.
