Bush, Harken, Baseball, and Eminent Domain
Dubya had a near perfect racket going. Here, in a nutshell is how one of his scams worked.
1) Sold off his Harken stock based on his INSIDE knowledge that its value was about to go through the floor.
2) Failed to report his insider trading to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
3) Used the ill-gotten profits from his illegal stock sale to purchase an interest in a professional baseball team.
4) Used eminent domain to FORCE families out of their homes to make
room for his baseball team's stadium --- BUILT at tax payer expense.
5) Sold his interest in the baseball team; and walked away a rich man.
