Well, just from this weeks headlines, I could mention Enron
Corporation & Sun Airlines (bonuses for executives just before going out of
business), Northwest & most other airlines (executive bonuses while huge
employee layoffs), LTV Corp in northern Minnesota (executive raises as they
cut off contracted benefits for employees).

Well, anybody COULD have brought these contributions in. But she
was the one who actually DID it. Performance should count.
