Only innovative people would ask why there is such a thing as taxes and innovative people would come with solutions why? it's the new way of doing business
When I first watched this ad, I thought it was for Exxon. Then I caught the title and saw that it was Enron! What a coincidence, though because Exxon could put their name on it and this ad would be a perfect expression of the Exxon spirit... Regulation is bad, markets know best...Drill, baby, DRILL!
ah the Enron ask why commercials. it was a great way to boost enron stock by top execs so they could dump them later and make millions on the still wildly overpriced stock
I remember seeing these commercials when they were first aired and thinking to myself, "So what what does this company do, exactly?" Part of the problem, methinks.
I still love this commercial, despite Enron's fall. Reminds me of the can-do spirit of the dot com era, when anything was possible. Dammit, I want those times back again!

He's wearing that suit because he was born without a skeleton. Take it off, and he collapses in a heap.

It's funny how all of these energy companies all seem to have very similar names... Enron, Exxon, Chevron, etc... Why so similar?
