Today in the economy

[Spicoli]

Our gluttony & excess is catching up fast.Alot of it is personal fiscal responsibility,prioritizing needs over wants.Its tough all over right now.Daily directions to"keep payroll down",shave hours and such.Getting into dicey territory when I start considering who can 'take the hit' best and still sustain daily needs.Sometimes its difficult to weigh the personal aspects over buisness,but it is a must.you want to put your head in the sand somedays.

It all comes down to a quick strike to show the shareholders rather then sustainable growth. These idiots,both stockholders and CEO's,were worried about quick gain over something that will last. They walk with a good chunk of all of our money,and the economy goes to shit.As long as the "Captains of Industry" are viewing money as a way of keeping score,then viewing it in terms of need and performance,we're going to end up with this kind of mess.
Couple that with a corporate friendly White House who gutted regulation every single chance they got,and you have a serious bitches brew.
The regulatory laws they gutted,had gotten passed for a reason. Because the chuckleheads who screwed up the economy this time,had fathers who screwed it up last time,so we werent exactly taking them on faith.
As a nation,we have very bad long term memory

I hear ya man.I dont own stock at this moment.Right now I'm trying to figure out how to let a single mother 'go' who has been nothing but a loyal quality worker and a good person,by weeks end.Morally,I can not.But its not about me,the bigger picture rules the day.

Its even hitting boxing,the purses have shrunk,and it puts me in a situation where I have to make moral decisions.
I had to pass on a matchmakers fee yesterday,when I found out someone was offering the kid more money for a non title fight then I was offering for a title fight. I know what he does for a living,he needs the money more then he needs a low level belt,so I told his manager to take the other fight.
