In what ways did the Enron scandal represent the "dark side of the American Dream"?



    




EXCUSE ME WTF R U DOIN?
With the American dream came the classic American downfall. People invested millions and millions of dollars into Enron, and when it was all revealed to be a huge fraud, so many Americans lost their life's savings. It was a risk they were willing to take to attain the "American Dream" and they bet wrong.

Greedy people overreached. Overzealous prosecutors that wanted to win at all costs, greedily prosecuted the defendants.

A judge that wanted to make a big name, over-sentenced them.

In other words, everyone wanted way too much and made it out of nothing except overreaching.
