The "best" part of CEO culture is how even if you get fired for gross incompetence, running the company into the ground or some other legal issue you still get paid millions of dollars. Carly Fiorina almost completely ruined HP and she still got paid $21 million after being forced out. loving ridiculous.

I trolled a petty CEO into deleting his slashdot account. He Kramered into a discussion leading with how he was upset at the idea people are saying that employees are the ones who do work in a business, and then when pressed said the fact that he signed the government forms and took out the loans was why he deserved all the credit. He did NOT like being told that meant his position was given to him by the government, and his only skill was spending other people's money.

The rich have great class solidarity than anyone lmao

I love this clip from the Roy Moore scandal about 2 decades ago. Some hayseed yokel representing Moore tries to echo the claim that muslims can't be elected officials because you have to swear on the bible. Tapper makes this guy look like an absolute clown penis. https://youtu.be/WFYRkzznsc0

They found some brain damage on some of the "victims" so they assumed some sort of weapon had caused it when Ockham's razor would have sliced it up as: "they were working for the US government, of course they have brain damage".

I don’t think I ever heard about it again after that.

On that note: James Traficant in general.
