Company Gee
Joe Shmoe got a six million dollar increase cause he's the head of Company Gee.
Of course all the people who work for his company, the ones who actually sew the shoes and pound the pavement, lost their bonuses for the year. They also received a cut in hours and the money those hours generate.
That money was parceled out to those other people at the top, the ones who send their children to private schools and vacation in the Bahamas with twenty of their best friends.
I suppose it is hard to see the little people from the heights of our American aristocracy, but one of them put it nicely when he said, "When you cut my hours you cut my pay twenty percent. I suppose that means I will be able to buy less food for my family but maybe that is a good thing because my son will not grow fast enough to out grow the shoes I can no longer afford."
Perspective is important people!
