when a Barrett or Fiorina talks, it's like the proverbial tree falling in the forest when no one's around. It might be different if 1. they weren't singing the same old song for the last 10 years at least 2. if they would commit to stop laying off US workers and hiring offshore in exchange for tax policy I say again, that these companies were given HUGE TAX BREAKS in order to keep them here- they were going to generate all sorts of wealth, you see. Boy oh boy just wait until the recovery we are all gonna be rich. Well the recovery is here and where's the beef? Answer: Bangalore. The road constuction California did last year alone to support HP probably cost more than HP paid in corporate taxes. Its not like people drive into San Jose for fun.
