A federal agency, with access to unlimited tax dollars, descends upon corporations, demanding access to all manner of records to 'discover' a wrong that they can use to extract punitive damages. Has there ever been a better argument for less government?

You show me the corporation, I will find the crime.

(Reminds me of the governmental abuse Trump and associates have undergone, and are still undergoing)

"At a dense 278 pages, it reads like the diary of a man reduced to his last nerve cell of patience, kept going only out of determination to record every detail of his journey toward madness before perhaps jumping out an office window or going limp in front of a BART train."

Great writing again from Taibbi.

Edit: Wow part II is up already.
