When it's all said and done...

it comes down to the money. That is the bottom line in business...not the people but the money. However, it takes people to make money. So, in essence, it really is the people, right?

Wall Street applauds the move but Wall Street's bottom line is money. But, isn't Wall Street made up of people and businesses that are ran by people?

Money is the life of business but doesn't it take people to help make that money? Doesn't it take people to even print money? When will we realize that we put way too much emphasis on the dollar and too little on the people?

Well said... The business of America is business, but that business needs people to buy the goods/services

Companies used to invest in people, now they'll only invest in positive stock ratings.

The real kicker here, at least from the perspective of an IT person like myself, is that more and more processes and policies are being put in place to either push a worker to do more or completely do away with employee involvement. It's as though it's becoming increasingly tough for companies to justify every salary below top management regardless of the load in responsibility and professional worth the underlings take on.

Maybe some day Japan and the US will go at war again and the former will win this time. Apparently it helped humble leaders there and encourage more people-centric economies. It's not like existing dmestic policy fosters anything but greed and increasing gentrification, among oher things.

Japan would win. (their ninjas have been training in Lead suits, so now a nuclear blast wont slow them down one bit!)

Do you really think so? Let's not forget what side Chuck Norris is on.
