Letter: Oversight needed across the board
Friday, March 29, 2002 | 9:14 a.m.
The recent Arthur Anderson scandal was largely brought about by the government's failure to regulate and police the entire accounting industry. Allowing any industry to regulate itself is folly. Greed will always prevail.
Some other recent examples of self-regulation are: Ford/Firestone, airline security and nuclear power security. The Immigration and Naturalization Service has allowed at least 10 million illegals into our country, so even the government needs oversight.
