0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:02.759
<v Speaker 1>Hey, question, did you know that identity theft goes beyond

0:00:02.880 --> 0:00:05.520
<v Speaker 1>what you can see on a credit report. Yeah, Identity

0:00:05.559 --> 0:00:08.480
<v Speaker 1>thieves can open new accounts, they can rent or buy properties,

0:00:08.480 --> 0:00:10.399
<v Speaker 1>They can drain your four oh one K and even

0:00:10.480 --> 0:00:14.160
<v Speaker 1>file fake tax returns all in your name. There are

0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:16.959
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of ways identity theft can happen that go

0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay now. According to the Wall Street Journal, volkswagens in

0:01:04.200 --> 0:01:07.080
<v Speaker 1>hot Water company involved an achieving scandal to get around

0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:12.039
<v Speaker 1>environmental regulations, and now the Justice Department investigators are considering

0:01:12.080 --> 0:01:17.920
<v Speaker 1>criminal charges. Last year, Volkswagen admitted that they installed illegal

0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:20.759
<v Speaker 1>software in millions of cars around the world of ful

0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:24.600
<v Speaker 1>emissions tests. So far, Volkswagen is on the hook for

0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:29.080
<v Speaker 1>over fifteen billion dollars in civil penalties, but reaching a

0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.720
<v Speaker 1>deal with the Justice Department could end up costing them

0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:36.160
<v Speaker 1>billions more, especially if criminal charges are brought. Now, these

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:38.959
<v Speaker 1>German corporate types may know how to make cars and

0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:42.679
<v Speaker 1>install illegal software, but they sure as heck do not

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:45.640
<v Speaker 1>know how to play the American game of politics. I mean,

0:01:45.680 --> 0:01:49.680
<v Speaker 1>if they did, Volkswagen execs would have already donated millions

0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:52.640
<v Speaker 1>to the Clinton Crime Family Foundation, and today they'd have

0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:55.200
<v Speaker 1>friends in very high places. Let me just think of this.

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.680
<v Speaker 1>When the illegal software was discovered, a private meeting could

0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:02.080
<v Speaker 1>have been arranged, say an out of the way airport tarmac.

0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:05.640
<v Speaker 1>Bill Clinton and the Attorney General Laretta Lynch could have

0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:09.200
<v Speaker 1>had a discussion about grandkids. Then the next thing you know,

0:02:09.320 --> 0:02:11.920
<v Speaker 1>we would hear an announcement that Volkswagen did cheat the

0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:14.840
<v Speaker 1>system and they did flop the rules, but they were

0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:18.280
<v Speaker 1>just being very careless. They didn't intend any harm, and

0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:21.120
<v Speaker 1>no prosecutor looking at the evidence would even think about

0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:24.200
<v Speaker 1>bringing charges. That's how you play the game, and they

0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:26.839
<v Speaker 1>didn't play the game, and they're paying big time
