my billion dollar a year company is finding loopholes in obamacare and now I have been told as a manager that my part-time employees will have their hours reduced from 36 to 24. I know HEB is also doing this to their part timers as well. Its funny how greedy billionaires can be.

"How greedy they can be"? Really?

Unreal.

You better hope to God your billion dollar company still has a job for you in a few years.

There are greedy billionaires out there but as long they know how to run the company and keep it profitable, I don't see why they should be attacked for doing their job. This way more jobs are saved than lost.

Of course, some get so greedy and don't do a good job like Richard Fuld of Lehman Brothers who ran the company into the ground and ran off with huge bonuses.

I know a couple of people in intelligence, Langley to be specific. They make a great living, but it's also very demanding work that not a lot of people can handle

As to the earlier commentary in this thread, let's not bog down on billionaires just because of their salary. Until you've walked a mile in their shoes, it really just comes across as sour grapes.

It's not the billionaires fault they worked hard for what they have. It's our own governments fault for mandating and over taxing. Do you know what it cost for one min wage employee? More than double what they get paid hourly and that's without benefits. And it all goes to Uncle Sam. It's only gonna get worse...

My brother retired from the FAA as a controller, and was making well into the $100k's, but I wouldn't call that an "insane" amount of money for what he did. I guess it's a matter of perspective on what one does for a living.
