That is just one guy, $14.5 million in one year... Yeah, they really need a bail out. But of course once again when they fail the fat cats will run off with the money and the poor workers will be left in the lurch.
this is almost $40k a DAY for the year

not sure what the guy did to deserve that kind of money

the point is shit is fucked. no matter what people do, shit is fucked. so its either dig the hole deeper like is happening now with more money going to companies that have already proven they don't know how to manage themselves or just let capitalism self correct, big companies will shut down and there will be a market for something and then someone else can come in and have their go at it

thats the idea of the whole capitalism thing isn't it? if you run a good show, then you live a good life but if your shit stinks then you stink right alongside it.

the way it is now is if you run a good show then you live the high life, if your shit stinks then you just dump it over everyone below you and live the high life
