To NON-DU: If your CEO killed your kids, bankrupted your company, spied on employee personal lives,

[BigBearJohn]

would you keep him employed for another year, just because he
has another year on his contract... further allowing him the time
he needs to destroy your home and the livlihood of you and your future
generations just to make him and his cronies a LOT richer?

What has to happen before you'll take action -- any action --
to fix the problem? Does your house have to be burning down in
flames on top of you before you notice something is drastically wrong?

The house has burnt down, our entire life savings have been
squandered uselessly, our environment has been almost irreversibly
poisoned, our children sacrificed at the altar of the golden calf,
our planet is suffocating slowly to death -- BUT --

Don't worry, Pollyanna. Let's just wait one more year and in 2008,
the brand new President will fix everything!

Now, whatever you do -- don't make waves! Don't send millions of
letters to every Congressmen everyday. You can stomp your feet and
hold your breath if you want to. But above all else, JUST SIT THERE,
be real patient, obedient, be quiet... just like millions and millions
of other Americans.... sit there and WATCH Rome burn:

1. BBJ,

:loveya: :hi: :thumbsup:

[BigBearJohn]

6. Hey Special Lady!

Lots of love to you too!
You ARE the best!!

[flvegan]

2. Our Board of Directors obviously don't "fear" the stockholders enough

[babylonsister]

7. They fear nothing and have no reason to. That's kinda sad. nt

[proud2BlibKansan]

9. But they do fear the CEO

[malaise]

3. Bill Moyer's Journal tomorrow night is about

the people's call for impeachment.

4. Why are you asking non-DUers?

You have to be registered to post a response.

[BigBearJohn]

5. Well, I was assuming everyone on DU participates to some degree

But I thought the words I put forth might resonate
enough with current DUers that they might spread
the word.

8. What I would do to him...

... is something I definitely would not be allowed to say anywhere.

Let's just say my cruelty when at its peak is well beyond what one would say as frightening or perhaps even human and my thirst for vengeance is never quenched until I've reciprocated my form of punishment at least 10 times over.

10. BigBearJohn,

:yourock:

[BigBearJohn]

13. As do you proud2Blib!!!

:toast:

[ComerPerro]

11. when he said he'd run the country like a business, he meant it

a CEO in the situation you described would cost thousands of people their families and their lives as they know them, sending many deep into bankruptcy and ruin.

BUT the CEO would retire comfortably with a nice golden parachute.

So, to answer your question: Yes, Americans do tolerate that kind of shit from CEOs. Gladly
