CEO's plan their hiring and layoffs a year ahead of time, do you have any experience in budgets?
You just made the point even better. Due to greed, they have not been hiring for quite sometime, even planning as far back as 12-18 months ago to cut down on the number of hires since headcount expense is a big part of the profit equation. These "CEO's" (most real ones don't subscribe to these types of mags, preferring Fortune, Forbes, Business Week and specific industry mags) fear that these unregulated industries will be reigned in under Obama. I'm fine with a little fear, helps keep people honest. We have had the worst cases of corporate corruption (Enron is just one of several) in history under Bush.
sure they fear it. They are going to have to start to pay their fair share of their big bonuses for outsourcing American jobs and laying off American workers. Let's all have a big pity party.
Job Creators Prefer John McCain 4-to-1 Over Barack Obama
Chief Executive magazine’s most recent polling of 751 CEOs shows that GOP presidential candidate John McCain is the preferred choice for CEOs. According to the poll, which is featured on the cover of Chief Executive’s most recent issue, by a four-to-one margin, CEOs support Senator John McCain over Senator Barack Obama. Moreover, 74 percent of the executives say they fear that an Obama presidency would be disastrous for the country.
Do you recall comments made in late 2000, after Bush and Cheney were elected? Comments aobut their term being the "CEO presidency"? Those comments were a reference to Cheney having been the CEO of Halliburton and Bush having an MBA from Harvard.
Eight years later, there can be no doubt that CEOs and other top executives have treated themselves to tremendous gains, mostly at the expense of America's middle class. And the current financial meltdown doesn't reflect well on either Bush/Cheney's policy decisions or the "management expertise" of the CEOs of many American corporations.
These "top-flight" executives should be anxious at the prospect of an administration that isn't predisposed to cater to them. And the vast majority of Americans should be looking forward to that change in outlook.
CEOs have proven that they HATE AMERICA so if they're on McCain's side....the choice is clear for Americans who have just handed CEOs and their FAILED, FAILED as in FAILURE, businesses a
BIG GIANT
You guys have no idea what a CEO is like. What being in charge of a company is like providing jobs to people.
It is like a massacre of the very people who are giving you jobs.
Where have you been for the past decade? The American middle class has been getting massacred.
So-called "American" CEOs of so-called "American" corporations have been giving our jobs to the Chinese by the millions. Those they can't send overseas, they're giving to illegal aliens entering our country in wholesale numbers since Bush has emasculated the Border Patrol (in a "time of war" no less) so that these same CEOs can have a large pool of subminimum wage labor. Brilliant management, strengthening a communist economy while weakening ours. Patriotic too, allowing all this illegal immigration!
We're now all paying the price of their pitiful short-sightedness.
It's amazing and mystifying that so many Americans still buy into the myth that you've repeated in your post.
Sen. John McCain has said President Bush's tax cuts have increased federal revenues. But revenues would have been even higher without them.
And the economy would have been lower.. Please think, before you post..
