GWG....You may be correct but I put the blame solely on CEO incompetence not politics. The company has had a string of self serving incompetent CEO’s. HP had a long term history of being a profitable stable company, producing a quality product in the USA, and a reputation for being a good employer that paid well and rarely laid off. Then Carly Fiorina came along. The coincidence is that both Fiorina and Whitman (current CEO) personally dislike each other even as failed political candidates.
Friends that have worked at both HP and Lucent hate her guts and claim that her ego, arrogance and incompetent decisions screwed up both corporations. Even the founders of HP fought her decisions.
The latest by Leo Apotheker resulted in their Touch pad fiasco. It is disturbing to me that shareholders and employees pay big prices while these loser CEOs have walked away with the gold. They should not be paid for failure. They should be required to face personal liability for mismanagement.
