And once again, since you keep posting this, being a lib, are you OK
with screwing the hundreds of thousands, probably millions of
employees that had nothing to do with the cheating? OK with the
unemployment claims govts will have to pay? OK with the
bankruptcies of VW dealers, the effect that will have on their
creditors, loss of jobs for their employees, etc?


Exactly!

And it's the norm, not the exception, for companies exaggerate to
their product performance specs. Yawn!
If we go after VW, by rights we have to prosecute the other Fortune
499.


Sounds good to me.
