There is a campaign to make all private industry the bogeyman. What gives with that?
What would we do without our large companies??? Only eight percent of people work for the government. Most of us worked for
For Profit Companies.
I hear all kinds of put downs about how much CEO's make. They didn't just fall into that position and it is NOT easy to bear all that responsibility. There is a nasty movement to poison us all into a class war. After we have worked hard to have what we have, and encouraged our kids to get a good education and be successful...but pity the poor soul who has to tell their friends that their kid is CEO of General Electric.
WHAT is happening to us as a country????
