How can progress and change be made if we simply keep defending institutionalized stupidity and propping it up?
Yes, 10,000 layoffs would hurt - but we would emerge from that stronger and more "honest" as an economy as all those people sought and obtained jobs in sectors where they were actually in demand.
It's the bailout of Chrysler all over again. It was stupid then and it's stupid now. We sent a message then that "more of the same" was fine, replete with inefficiency, fraud, stupidity and excess and we're doing the same now.
Leave it to government to be even more short-sighted and foolish than corporations can be.
