Yeah, just what we need... another for-profit company (like

You are on another one of your anti-capitalism rants again. Did you
get laid off from a large corporation at the same time as Harry?


What are you smoking, Wayne?


Are you telling us that you actually had a successful career in
corporate America that you've never told us about? Not likely in my
opinion. The vitriol of you and your proxy spokespersons says it all.




Early in my professional working career, I was a successful employee of
a major American newspaper, the government, the largest wire service, a
labor union and two advertising/PR agencies. In each case in those days,
I left for better opportunities. What little respect I had for the
"corporate world" dissipated during the 1980s.


I found out that there was this thing called pay for performance in the
80's. You got paid for your performance. If you performed well you were
paid well. If you were a lay about and didn't do your job you were
fired. My pay increased so much during the 80's it was amazing.

I can see why you were disillusioned Harry.
