It is tiring that corporations spend more time worrying about Wall Steet and not their customers. If they would work on making quality products that worked and lasted it would be better for everyone including themselves than trying to manipulate numbers etc to keep trying to please wall street numbers then corporations would have better long term prospects than short term profits.
Basically what happened to having a business, making and selling a quality product, and making sure your customers were happy. Remember when a refrigerator or washing machine would last 10-15 years, even the basic models. Yes that use to happen because I have owned appliances that worked that well. Nowadays a frig doesn't last 5-7 years and shoot our washing machine just went out and it hasn't been four years since we bought it. And forget service calls, they charge an arm and a leg to come out and tell you that the cost will be almost the same as a new one.
It would be great if American companies thought about making products that last again. This obsession with profits above all else is one of the reasons our eonomy is in the tubes.
We need a consumer revolution that lets corporations know we want something better from them. So instead of occupying wall street, lets find a way to forget wall street.
More and more time is showing bigger corporations aren't better.
