Some believe that Sarbanes Oxley was necessary to help investors. They say that were problems pre-Sarbanes Oxley and that there was: “no real scrutiny of the “self-regulated” audit firms who at the time were attempting to bolster consulting fees by telling clients what they wanted to hear.” And that Sarbanes Oxley was necessary; well we know that is complete and utter hokum, what we should have done was simply get rid of all the accountants? Lawyers, Regulators and allow businesses to run free?
