I am continually amazed how people on this list are so concerned when
corporations are not making enough money. Who gives a shit!
Not me, effendi. Mark me down as putting people before profits.
Unfortunately, my druthers are not reflected in the current system, which --
last time I checked -- was capitalist and predicated wholly on the premise
that corporations must make money. What galls me is how lawyers (as usual)
manage to make an awful situation worse through their astonishing gift for
feeding off other people's misery. There's no perpetual billing machine
like today's state-of-art bankruptcies. As von Hoffman notes:
>> The only people who profit from these airline business catastrophes are
the
>> lawyers, accountants and Wall Street investment-banking houses who will
pick
>> up hundreds of millions (literally hundreds of millions) in fees and
charges
>> before this latest airline spasm has run its course. Seldom will so few
have
>> made so much for doing so little.
