The removal of Carly Fiorina should be a lesson for all corporations,

but I doubt that it will be seen that way. In a society that rewards glitz over substance, the patient work needed to restore health either to an individual or a corporation or even the government itself will go unrewarded.Carly, of course, will land another glitzy post at another corporation selling her wares to another group of gullible stockholders;meanwhile H-P the legendary corporation will find another con man or con woman with a smile and shoe shine ( thanks Arthur Miller) ready to fleece them one more time. In the era of George Bush these tales seem to repeat themselves with a monotonous routine.I understand L.Paul "Jerry" Bremer, is looking for a job.May be "Jerry" will replace Carly.

1. They should have dumped her incompetent *ss

right when she came up with the insane idea to buy Compaq. That's been a problem for HP ever since.

2. It helps to remember that ,like most con men (or women) Carly ,with

her marketing background,sold herself as the modern day savior of a corporation about whose workings she had very little grasp of.It did not occur to her that computers were becoming commodities;if you were losing money selling one computer, you are likely to lose millions more when you try to sell lots of them.Fortunately for her she didn't sell too many of the Compaqs she was trying to sell.She did not have the tech savvy of a Steve Jobs to rescue a company like H-P which was synonymous with Tech.

3. The bitch retired with...

More money than I, my kids, AND my grandkids will ever see in our collective lives. All in all, I'd say she was a smashing success.

Welcome to the real world. It sucks.

4. And she is probably not done yet. She will find another group of

gullible people and come riding on her high horse promising to rescue yet another corporation from being consigned to oblivion. She will continue this charade, as in a Ponzi scheme, until she gets her rightful billions in the bank. Nice work, if you can get it.

5. WAY too many people

buy into the "wealth rewards merit" train of thought. If you wear a suit rather than a ski-mask you couldn't POSSIBLY be a criminal, ergo your wealth is a reflection of your Godly merit.

"Money is the root of all evil" doesn't even BEGIN to cover it. It would take a stack of books the size of Toronto to give that phrase the respect it deserves.
