Dick Cheney = Evil Man

I found this:

"Cheney's aides defended the assertion on NBC, saying the financial arrangements do not constitute a tie to the company's business performance. They pointed out that Cheney took out a $15,000 insurance policy so he would collect the deferred payments over five years whether or not Halliburton remains in business."

A bit greedy perchance, or maybe Cheney is trying to secure his pension so that he will not have to starve to death when he retires? Greed is often fueled by a felt, and often irrational, need to be secure.

Personally I don't think keeping an eye on them is nearly enough. And no-one is going to indict them (at least not while Bush/Cheney are in power).
