Bosses Beware!

I was in for a surprise when I read the comments in Yahoo about the Indian worker who killed the CEO who fired him. The majority, while deploring the killing, understood that corporate greed caused the situation. What's more quite a few cheered and thought it a good idea.
Only a handful of commentators came down on the bosses side, often intersperced with racist remarks – the usual suspects, in other words.
This tells me there is a lot of pent-up anger at the bullies and greed-creeps these days. SEE:

  2. Is that a serious endorsement of capital punishment for this firing? Sounds more than just a tad extreme.

  3. Nick is right.

    OT: See Sonia's analysis of the economic crisis. In a political education class, someone said bourgeoise economists don't recognize capitalism's cycles. I thought that was common knowledge.

  4. OT: My friend Troutsky has a serious troll problem at his blog.

    I'm sure he'd appreciate a comment of support against the troll.

  5. I saw W. Josh Brolin played Bush very well, in an overall horrible movie. Glad it was a free screening.
