"Restructurings" usually are much harder on the working stiffs than the

Yup, sure is a lot of gnashing of teeth over working stiffs. Funny, I
don't recall near as much about the billions in bonuses given to managers
that actually ran their companies into the ground. Damn unions are
ruining this country. So Harry, when did Lehman Brothers go union?

You can be sure no one in the Bush Administration gives a damn about
worker bees. Oh...and I just read somewhere that several of the
financial institutions, banks mostly, getting taxpayer bailout money
have reserved some of it for future bonuses for executives.

We're not there yet, and we may not get there in my lifetime, but what
we need in this country is a total restructuring of society that adds
fairness. I'm not talking communism, but I wouldn't mind a bit more
European socialism. More and more this country seems to exist only to
help the wealthy attain more wealth. If that is the direction it is
heading, then it deserves to fail.
