    I still dont know what the fuss is about Obama? That he can memorize some nice speech written by an army of local experts?

    Show me the dough...

    Why sign a pact? The second world war ended 3 times before those who station here were born. Move your bodies off these islands and try not to live off my tax yens.

    Well said Shichiman. medievaltimes: "I suppose anyone COULD be a CEO for some amount of time. But some are better at it than others...don't you think?"

    Tell me one job where some are not better at it than others?

    One more thing to you about your statistics of who can become CEO. Anyone. Unless you think genetics are involved in the numbers. In that case you should be living in the 1940s...

    I give up on you grasping my point on eliminating customers = eliminating your own job. However following your logic that the company owes nothing to its employees, on the contrary, what do we owe to companies? Since it is our own tax dollars they get bailed out from time after time as market cycles repeat themselves. It is tax money taken from the employees so the company owes their employees. They could not survive bad times without government (employee tax dollars). So your logic would be only viable in the stone age. Where the guy in the cave next to mine does not owe me anything and only the strong are to survive.

    UAW was not the problem even if it is considered now a liability. We all like profits but not liabilities, don't we? In that sense providing private jet and million bucks salary for a CEO is also a liability.

    No I am not living in la la land. This is a society where the overwhelming majority must work in a company to make ends meet. So the needs of the society must be reflected in how companies are operated. So we dont want to operate CEOs but societies. I hope this will clarify you the basics.

    So you guys dont get basic economics? Who pays your CEO's x milion bucks? The consumers. Should you fire them, there really wont be any jobs left. Including your CEO. Ciao

    I see that no one addresses the real issue. The UNSC is as powerful as the cleaning lady of your subway station's resting area. Just ask yourself, did it stop the Iraq war? Did it stop masacres in Africa, Russian invasion of Georigia, etc? Did it make the world we live in more secure? UNSC membership is a status simbol with ever less meaning to us on the ground.

    Sorry to break the news but no government can fix the problems. We are going through a major market correction (a very painful one) and I am sad to say there are only short term PR chances in it for politicians. This problem can only be fixed by itself but we are used to the idea pf governments fix things for us. Well lets just take a look at the lost pension record problem. A job the government was expected to do for us. It was as simple as keeping records with backups in place. If they cannot do such a simple task, how would they fix investor and consumer confidence?

    America is short on energy for only one reason and it is not because of what a single politician sais today or tomorrow. Energy was too cheap for too long and was taken for granted. The same is true for Europe and the rest of the developed world. This problem will not go away within our generation jst because you choose a black or white candidate. We have to change not our politicians.
