re: #470 Henchman Ghazi-808

Setting aside the wingnut side, I have a question about those numbers and it goes to motive.

How much of this is abject greed, and how much of it is an artifact of profitability from costs that were cut to survive the worst months, and a continuing period of inadequate demand? I say this from a perspective of a guy that works in the manufacturing sector. Wall street is all voodoo to me, as far as work experience goes. Where I work it’s about patience and caution. Waiting for demand, and cautious about what product will be getting the attention.

The wingnuts assume it’s all good, ThinkProgress presumes it’s all about evil greed.
