I agree with you entirely.

Bank of America (to name one) claims it has to "cut costs" by firing thousands of Americans, outsourcing those jobs to India, and yet paid its CEO over $20 million in 2002.

At some point, we've got to stop kneeling before the altar of the free market & take a good look at what's happening around us.

Last winter, I frequented a Starbucks in NY. One of the barristas was a white guy who looked to be in his late 40s. Too old to be entry level, too young to be retired, and yet there he was. He was always very friendly, like he was happy to have a job. I wondered what his story was (actor? fired IT guy?) but I didn't want to embarrass him by asking.
