You're crap and paid too much for the little work you actually do
Very cynical view. If this is what's happening across companies, than the market system wasn't efficient enough or was impeded to make a change.<p>We all know that the local cable or telephone companies aren't trying their damn hardest and we are not pleased with the services we're getting. However, we can't do anything about it.<p>To me, it's incomprehensible that we can sit on our hand and not make things better. Instead of being a big bully in the market, why not aim to make our lives better? Why all the politicking when it's quite urgent that medical progress need to be made now?<p>After all, a million dollars or three won't make much a difference in respect to making a billion dollars on a monopoly. With the billion dollars in hand, the future of you, and everyone else is worse off, because you focused too much on marketing rather than on groundbreaking research.<p>Do pharmaceutical CEOs only care about their short term bottom line and not the future of their health, their family, and their friends?<p>Do AT & T corporate board really only care about what they made each day rather than the future of the internet? By expanding and making the infrastructure cheaper, they will benefit from the numerous services of future internet.<p>Expand pie, and don't focus too much on getting a larger portion of the pie. Don't compromise the size of the pie.
