The government needs to grab this guy quick before he makes it easier for more crooks to get away with twisting our laws to allow more criminality.

Going to the link this guy and his associates are par of the most dangerous underground of criminal activity in the USA and internationally. These are big time crooks, bigger than Al Capone.

Adelson is on the same level as Bain and Romney as reported in our threads by our DU member Laser Hass seeking to bring Mitt to justice for destroying jobs and businesses. But with the election over and Romney out, it is hard to generate the interest to stop these crooks.

But it may be key to a lot of the grief working people have suffered and will continue to suffer from these vultures.
