DuPont CEO: Next, we'll cut factories, suppliers

DuPont Co.'s target date to merge with Dow Chemical Co. has been delayed into early 2017 as regulators on four continents scrutinize its impact on pesticide prices and other corporate competition.

But further plans for factory closings and consolidations, and for spinning off the combined chemical giants' pesticide, materials and specialty groups into new companies, remain on schedule, and should be finished by summer 2019, CEO Edward Breen told investors in the Wilmington chemical company's third-quarter conference call today.

Indeed, Breen said he expects future cost cuts will rise above the previously projected $3 billion. After axing 1,700 Delaware-based central management, research and support staff last winter, among other job cuts, "we think there's really nice opportunity" to reduce expenses on the "operations side of the house," Breen added.

Your analogy is irrelevant.

DeBeers is not a U.S. corporation. The U.S. used to be unique in the world and thus successful. Now that the globalist have the upper hand we are turning into a one world s#!thole.

P.S. Are you sure you’re on the right forum?

Maybe I am. Maybe I'm not.

I believe in capitalism, a central government with no ability to establish policies nor any rights not explicitly enumerated within the Constitution. Property rights, voting rights ONLY for those natural born citizens who OWN PROPERTY, and the sovereignty of individual states to do as they please, up to and including seceding from the Republic. Religion doesn't interest me, but feel free to do whatever it is you need to do, it's your right. I believe that "traditional gender roles" is a stupid way liberals label the natural order of men and women. Men work, women raise children. That's exactly how it's supposed to be, no ifs ands or buts. As such, women are not fit to lead in business, the military, and especially this year: POLITICS.

So, it's possible that I am on the wrong forum, if you believe that to be the case, you're entitle to your opinion, but frankly, I don't care about it one way or the other.

No, I agree you are in the right place. What is misplaced is your opinion that monopolies and monopolistic trusts are a good thing and are supported by the constitution. Research the “Clayton act” as it pertains to section 8 of the Constitution of the United States and get back to me.

“voting rights ONLY for those natural born citizens who OWN PROPERTY”

You may want to be a bit more forgiving in this one, tell my 93 year old WWII vet Dad who currently does NOT own property, that he can’t vote - per your decree
