Remember folks, NOBODY owes you a “decent standard of living.”

Can anyone please tell me why countless democrat-dominated site, like this one, are swarming with people who do not understand that companies have a right to adjust to the free market as they please?

They aren't private companies - they are Prescription Drug Program administrators for the Federal Government. Who are they to lay anyone off?? ;)

If I know exactly what I want, I go to Best Buy. If I don't, I go to Circuit City. In my area the Circuit City sales staff is much more knowledgeable about their products. Their prices are higher but their service is better.

Circuit City has a right to fire any employee in a effort to stay competitive and survive. A stupid company fires productive workers. A smart company cuts off bloated waste. I think Circuit City knows what is best for their business...which is not "employing workers," but servicing customers and making a profit.
