This is the most important part: you can jump through all the hoops they set up for you, and STILL be jobless.

The recent leaked data on the trillions in overseas accounts could give this "libor" story a run for its money. Depends on whether the tax shelters were legal or not. After the journalists sort through this tax info., they should dump the entire database online, so people can search it for...
