What is Wrong with This???

It has just been released that salary inequality in America is now at the level that preceded the Great Depression. Great. As I have stated, I want the job of running a company into the ground so I can be retreaded as a CEO elsewhere and still collect my millions of dollar Golden Parachute. see Joe Nacchio, Enron, Home Depot, et al. and also use insider information to purchase stock and sell out of the company knowing it will crash and burn. see Countryside Mortgage.

and now the Decider, old Monkey Boy himself, stated

"First of all, our society has had income inequality for a long time. Secondly, skills gaps yield income gaps,"

What the hell is his great skill? Aside from the obvious being a member of the lucky sperm club, his other great attributes seem to be easily manipulated, intellectually incurious, arrogant and dishonest. Good skill set that. He had to be bailed out of business venture after business venture by family and friends. and for this he gets to be the CEO President. Maybe he thinks he gets a Golden Parachute for leading the country to economic disaster, military collapse and international scorn. Oh yes, ethical lows, too.

I know many people out there who don't have great job skills, but know how to suck up, lie, cheat, blame others and start rumor campaigns. Okay, some of this may seem to be sour grapes as one of my previous bosses graduated from trade school and I received a Master's in Administration. He received business awards from the Republican Party for dealing with Indian Tribes. Over $80,000 went to the tribes and the business associates while we received no (NO) income in our business.

So the main job skill to succeed in business needs to be the ability to be manipulated and being a butt boy, and all that is due will come to you. It is something not mentioned in Business School, but really is important--know the right people, have pictures in your file and bingo--you succeed.

And many of these successful rich white men--okay, GOPpers, have debates where they state truisms like "Why National Health Insurance, go out and get your own." When the hell was the last time they tried to make ends meet on less than $40,000 per year with a family? Health insurance, maybe after rent, utilities and a weekly ration of beans and macaroni are paid for. With maybe a few beers. They are so out of touch with skill sets that the only way they would survive in the wild would be to try and find someone to survive and hunt for them and then give them food.

Aargh! it makes me want to scream.
