Surviving American Corporations

Not at all
what I'd call
people friendly,
but to them
it has become
quite a simple process;
according to new
Corporate Policy
they hire someone
at thirty percent
lower wages,
require you to train them,
and then they kindly notify you
that you are overpaid
and they have no other choice
except to fire you.

This is the way to get the economy moving, lower the workers wages, bust the unions, and give the corporations big tax breaks..
Makes sense, right?

didn't mean to get all political on you James, but your poem stirred up this old wobbly.

good work
