Normal folks who come out of bankruptcy would watch their spending and take it easy on spending. When DAL came out of bankruptcy, the CEO and others got huge bonuses and then they decided to spend a ton of money on a new paint scheme! Yes, DAL does know how to waste money!
Can't argue there. There are robber barons running lose among the entire corporate America. I liked the USAToday op-ed yesterday that questioned the CEOs who hate unions and their contracts but then refuse to work unless they are compensated by a huge contract. The guy did a very nice job arguing in defense of what we know.
