“this blather is as audacious as it is nearsighted.”

Not it’s not.

All of it is true. I’m watching our own company (I won’t mention the name, but it’s a biggie) sending jobs offshore as fast as they can find and hire. Layoffs all over. I’m surrounded by empty cubicles.

All those empty cubicles, are people who lost a good job, who won’t be down at the shopping center this weekend, because they’re looking for a new job, and trying to save money.

Most won’t find a new job, anywhere as good. Those good jobs, are the ones being lost.

America is losing our future. Our jobs. Our knowhow. Our industries. Our ability to do, to make, and to innovate.

And far too many people (even here on FR) think that’s a GOOD THING?

You can think that if you want but the simple fact is that Sears has already sold almost all of the real estate that the company owns. In doing that they also closed the associated K-mart and Sears stores. their performance as a stock is in the poor range and last Christmas did not improve their cash situation.

this blather is as audacious as it is nearsighted.

And two days later one of the predictions has come true: Microsoft offering $44 billion for Yahoo.
