I don't know about you but I am fed up with the mismanagement and financial irresponsibility by our government and the large corporations in our country. The recent incident with Northern Trust and the serious error in judgment they made by sending a bunch of employees to a PGA Golf Tournament and springing for lavish rooms and high-end entertainment is unacceptable. All this after receiving $1.5 billion in federal bailout money in Oct. 08. Kudos to the politicians that called them on this!
Since then, Morgan Stanley and Wachovia have removed their affiliations with similar events. I wonder if they would have done this without Northern Trust being caught with their hand in the cookie jar? I seriously doubt it!
Here's a trivia question for you:
Besides our government, what has a whole bunch of intelligent people with huge egos, low or no moral or ethical standards, and a serious void in leadership?
Answer: Corporate America
So with that said, what can we do about it. My recommendation is for each of us to evaluate where we are spending our money and choose with intention to longer line the pockets of these thugs. They are nothing more than common criminals in high dollar suits. Spend your hard earned money with the "mom & pop" businesses in your community. Our country was built on these businesses and the owners really appreciate your business and won't take you for granted, or at least most of them won't. The ones that will are the exception and they are either former corporate big wigs or politicians or in training for one of those roles.
Let's take our country back from the thieves and idiots that are running it!!!
In all fairness, I must state that there are some great large corporations out there that are doing it right and unfortunately, they are becoming fewer by the day.
Just believe...
