More Reasons to Hate Fleet

Mar 17, 2004 17:22

Just heard on TV that Fleet Bank is having yet another merger!

This may cause over 13,000 people to lose their jobs because "cutting jobs is necessary to give investors the kind of returns they expect to see...." ARGHHH!!!!!

In other words, in order to give some people who already have money extra money, they're going to force tens of thousands of people with little money to have none!

Why the heck is our country so focused and worried about the sexes of people who want to get married (which will affect exactly zero other people) and not these wide-reaching and catastrophic parasitic practices which affect millions? Gah!

If you believe that our country is getting worse and want to know why, don't blame homosexuals, single mothers, liberals, conservatives, religious, humanists, or anyone else who acts out of love or concern for another. We live in an era where employees can work hard to make companies more money than ever before, and they will be rewarded by being fired in order to raise the profit margin even more.

Blame that; blame the mentality that says "other people's lives are worth less to me than my own comfort."
