A portant harbinger from the CEO |
|
I got a letter from the CEO this morning (form letter to the whole company). I work for a vary large global corp.
Anyway, CEO says he has recently met with Hillary Clinton and he was talking in the letter about our future operations with respect to two things - healthcare and the environment.
The previous mention of Hillary had been a different CEO a couple of years ago knee jerking to some rumour that Hillary was going to do something that would affect trade adversely. I think it was the time of Dubai Ports conversation, and they were suggesting that we write form letters to protest stricter trade regulations.
So this guy, by contrast, seems like he is on board with something.
When you hear this type of lip service, the overall effect is that you get the idea that big people have already decided what is going to happen next.
Probably what you can say is that this guy, and the business world at large, is forseeing a Clinton win and they are making nice nice to get favorable treatment.

you mean that he supported Clinton's plans to expand health insurance and protect the environment?

4. Hopefully the business world at large is on board with the ISSUES |

and what the public is slowly starting to demand en masse, rather than an assumption of a particular candidate.
These assumptions alone are what's starting to piss off the average American: assuming we don't know they're lying incessantly on these TV shows, in speeches, etc., and there's proof on videotape; assuming we can't or won't get the truth elsewhere than the MSM; assuming we feel powerless to affect change; assuming a particular candidate will be crowned wayyyyyy before the majority of voters have decided, and so on.
