Re: "We suck less!"
said by batterup  :said by bmn :said by batterup :They make billions of dollars for the owners of the companies. And ? The only people that matters to are shareholders, not people who are buying what they are selling, the former being a lot smaller group than the later. It is called capitalism, the alternative is call communism. Capitalism with as little government control as possible has proven to work far better then communism. Once again, and ? Companies making money doesn't mean jack to the people buying their goods and services.
Also, contrary to your false dichotomy, there are several alternatives to capitalism besides communism.

When you buy stock do you look for companies that will not put your interests first? Investor interests and customer interests are contradictory. Investors want to get as much money from customers while giving them as little as possible. Customers want as much service as possible for the least amount of money possible - value.
A company that tends to put its investors interests first, tends to have a less than happy customer base.

You should stand behind your words and buy all of the Vonage stock you can. It is a bargain at $5.68, the IPO was $17.25
Just think how happy the people are that lost 82% of their money in knowing they helped the consumer. |

You should stand behind your words and buy all of the Vonage stock you can. It is a bargain at $5.68, the IPO was $17.25 And what words might those be since you like to put words into people's mouths?
Just think how happy the people are that lost 82% of their money in knowing they helped the consumer. We have a word that describes this statement.... Bullshit. Vonage's stock didn't take a hit BECAUSE "they helped the customer." Where do you pull this stuff out of ? Seriously, where do these these delusions come from that allow you to makes such wild-eyed fantasies with no basis in fact?
Go ahead, PROVE that it was BECAUSE "they helped the customer" that Vonage's stock fell 82% ? Actual facts too, no bullshit.
