Not saying that we’re not going to have a down turn but the panic is un-necessary and irresponsible.

I have been wondering if we should substitute the word "TANTRUM" for "panic".

"See what we can do to your 401(k)?" "Buy this car TODAY or NEVER!!" "It's a CRISIS".

OK, on paper I lost five digits yesterday.

But I also know if I run my business with criminal stupity and short sightnededness, I deserve to go down. I do not expect YOU to give ME a good severance package for being a greedy shortsighted idiot.

I saw enough of that in the last few decades in Fortune 500's. We would get someone who would ruin a division, and it would cost us millions to get rid of him. Amazingly, he would go on to a better position, and loot and wreck that. There were never any consequences.

Show me some real consequences for these people or don't ask me for a cent.
