If Fujitsu was a good company it would sell to employees at cost. But obviously they don't when asking employees to buy their products, so this is just exploitation of their workers. Manager who thought up this idea should be first one sacked as it has already damaged Fujitsu's reputation…

Russia just turned to protectionism and has pushed up the price of imported cars. Obama will do the same as protectionism is the quickest way for nations with plenty resources to right their economies and pull down unemployment.
