Of course, profits are up.........fewer products, higher prices, higher demand. Simple formula.

Savings accounts are running out. Cashing in on IRA and small 401k balances slowing up. Top line up, the middle getting bloated, bottom lines going to get hurt. That's when labor cuts occur.

guy in the red shorts is going to be charged with murder, and rightfully so.
