Did anyone notice on CNBC this morning that when talking about the GE-HON problem in Europe, Joe and Mark seemed to be running the spreadsheets in their head and computing the effect on the quality of their retirements.
Why is it that when MSFT is accused of bundling -packaging IE5 with Windows OS it is evil and anticompetitive and Bill Gates is an unAmerican terrorist. But when GE is accused of the same thing by requiring planes financed by GE to use GE engines and presumably HON electronics it is just good old American free enterprise and Jack Welsh is an American patriot resisting those evil European protectionists?
