It’s been a dark week for justice in Indiana, with the railroad and industrial securities taking a devastating hit. The value of these securities has plummeted by many millions since the first of March, leaving investors reeling. But this isn’t the only story of financial ruin. In the town of BOMOJM near Milan, Italy, a fire destroyed the greater part of the village, leaving 1,000 people homeless. The tragedy is a stark reminder of the destructive power of unchecked greed and corruption.
