I agree Bucking Bar. Unfortunately, it isn't about being reasonable where both sides prosper. It's about getting the most they can, about serving their own interests. The only value held is maximizing the return for the stockholders, right after they maximize their own.

I'm not condoning "militant" behavior, it tends to be all emotion and no thought. However, we are setting ourselves up to be taken advantage of if we engage management constructively with the expectation they do the same. They have shown that they will not be reasonable, and will rob us blind if we give them the opportunity. MHO.

Ize go back to merely lurking now. Please continue your normal more educated discourse.
