The article focuses on corruption among top executives in American corporations in light of the conviction of former Enron executives Jeffrey Skilling and Kenneth Lay for fraud. Economic reforms which would hold leaders of company's responsible for their actions are discussed, such as independent board members, more equitable stock option distributions and an advisory voice for employees. A scandal at the mortgage company Fannie Mae is mentioned, as well as the importance of persecuting white collar crime.
