Give me a break on the Marx BS but while you are at it please explain your “capitalist development”.

Why do CEO’s (such as a worthless Carly Fiorina of Lucent/ATT/HP fame) that have control of the strategic direction of their corporations (most of which are global now and not at all USA) get an ironclad employment contract that would make most commies and socialists envious? Ask anyone who has ever worked for this POS prima donna.

Until every overpaid CEO has no contract and can be fired at will by shareholders, I will totally support workers who toil every day for their company, while the greedy CEO manager with nothing at risk looks for another perc.

The CEO screws up and they get millions more. The company goes bankrupt and they get more. The shareholders lose and these thieves get more. Only the shareholders and employees who have a huge stake too lose. This is why I’m no longer a Repub. Repubs have become pure corporatists instead of fiscal conservatives

Marxist-Leninist theory postulates that capitalism develops through discrete stages and that we are in the age of financial capitalism. This is what you were saying, too. Read Lenin’s book “Imperialism, the Final stage of capitalism”.

Boards of Directors approve these contracts. Shareholders vote for them and it appears that they do not care about these contracts.

Workers don’t care about any of that since all they want is to keep their jobs and have salary increases on a yearly basis.

None of your complaints have anything to do with the reality of economics. Nor do Republicans even if they are used by you as a whipping boy to justify your aid to the Democrats.

Corporations are a fact of life and have greatly improved yours even if you are unaware of this.
