If only she had a wrinkle for every HP employee who’s life she destroyed.

“If only she had a wrinkle for every HP employee who’s life she destroyed.”

I was going to say something along those lines.

I still want her to be asked if she feels guilty yet for accepting that $10 million golden parachute from HP.

Your tagline is totally anti-socialist, and yet a ceo laying off employees to restructure a company to be more profitable or to survive a downturn (essentially, saving the company) is 'ruining lives?'

Which is it, because you can't have free enterprise which is subject to business cycles, and also not lay off employees.

I don't like her at all as a candidate, but certainly not because she wisely laid off a ton of people during a downturn in which IBM and a hundred other big tech companies were going through the same and doing the same ... that being exactly what they should have done.

Also, lives are not ruined when people are laid off - or at least - if they are - it's not the employer's responsibility. If you live and work in a free market, and you don't know that it's a naturally possible outcome no matter how great an employee you are, then you're not being responsible.

It's just that the comment was a socialist comment, and I know you're not one.
