Absolutely. It was an intentional rip off imho, and at the very least the monies should be returned to the employees who walked away with nothing.

So here's how it all boils down:
The exec's get a "golden parachute"

I'd like a crystal ball that would tell me how many CEO's have stood on the public stage and misrepresented the position of their company to keep shareholders at bay while they cash out.

Even if they are never prosecuted for a crime, it's still unethical (at least in the sense of Plato's noble lie) and most if not mostly all are guilty at some time...you betch 'ya (wink).
