Yep, that pretty much sums up what I said already regarding shareholders profits and huge executive salaries more than negating any possible cost savings. MrT.

I know that view is popular amongst leftists, but it is simply not true - like any claims by Mr Rudd. The money supply is controlled by the Fed. Greenspan was the cause and your silly leader knows it. Anyone with a brain knows that the US is living beyond it's means & the financial crisis ain't over. > > MrT. > > > >

Simply saying something is wrong does not make it so, no matter how many times you say it. > The money supply is controlled by the Fed. Greenspan was the cause The problem was that Greenspan and the right wing US government allowed the free market radicals total control of the economy. The solution as everyone other than you now realises is MORE government control, NOT less! MrT. |
