Companies cannot afford to keep on dead weight. During the Reagan boom
(Clinton took credit), companies were willing to hire anyone to fill an
opening without regard to the ability of that person to do the job. This
led to unqualified people (intelligently challenged) being led to
believe they deserve a piece of the "pie". Unfortunately, most companies
cannot afford to keep unproductive people on their payrolls. It's not
like we live in a communist state where everyone has a "so-called" job
(even if they don't work they get their "paycheck"). In the real world
one must work for a living an will only have that job as long as they
produce. Many companies in the tech sector have instituted the "bottom
10%" policy. Every year, the bottom 10% producers get the boot while
they continie to aggressively recruit more productive employees. Doesn't
sound like communism to me. Thank God.

Is Boobspit a communist?

BTW, all my investments are doing great!

Sorry Booby, the economy has come roaring back in spite
of all the Democrat demagoguery.

Bwahahahaha! Roaring back? Bwahahahahahaha! It needs a lot more roaring!

The

cuts by large companies are even bigger now than last year!
I know! It's Jimmy Carter's fault!

HAhahahaha... the WP is not reliable. Listen to the GAO.

Check your figures or read the following:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...2003Nov28.html

Jobs were lost mostly in the manufacturing sector due to increased
efficiency. Profitability is up because dead wood was trimmed off.

It's just like a liberal to think business exists as some sort of
welfare program that must employ more people than needed to get
the job done. Business exist to make money for themselves and
their stock holders. Get used to that fact. That's capitalism and
that's the system we live under. That is the system that made this
country the greatest economic power the world has ever known.

Lost jobs is just another liberal mantra that is as meaningless as
asking where's the WMDs. The only people who care about a
few lost jobs are those who are laid off or fired because they
are no longer needed. Does it ever occur to these people to get
another job? Nah- they're mostly liberal Democrats who think
they are entitled to unemployment benefits because their
overpaid, union jobs were trimmed as unnecessary.

They can't. You're right. If that's the case, how come Neal is
still employed... we know he's dead weight. The problem is
that companies are not actively hiring even to fill the open
spots they have. They're trying to squeeze every last once
out of their current employees. You can only do this for so
long. Then, the company suffers. The economy will turn
around eventually. It's still suffering, mostly from unreasonably
high unemployment in most of the major economic centers.

Remember they said the tax cuts would
increase interest rates and kill the economy? Were they right about this?


Nope. The economy is in awful shape, only showing "improvement" after huge
losses and scaling back by nearly every major company. Everyone is in survival
mode. The economic recovery is presently building on cuts, not profits. Care to
examine the year for Walmart, Toys R Us or Merc? All slashed back to show even
a break-even point. The low interest rates are a desperate measure, and not
even the liberals predicted such a bad fall.

RB

You are ****ing whacked. Manufacturing is hiring. Wall-Mart had a 1.6
billion dollar day. A 1.6 billion dollar day. I say again comma, a
1.6 billion dollar day, ****ing dumbass. Their best day ever, one
point six billion dollars.

It's so amusing when a moron like Horvath thinks a day of sales of any kind can
make up for three years of losses, cuts and closings.

Actually, it's even more amusing when a moron like Horass demonstrates
his ability to read and write.

I don't believe the much weakened dollar affects the price of domestic
tap beer served in the low end titty bars. Thanks for being a
patriotic consumer
