NEC profit drops, company sees rebound

My response:

That and only that is why the economy is doing anything remotely good.

Economy isn't our quality of life.

It's how much money the executives can pocket.

And with 56 million more decent (but not necessarily high) paying jobs that can feasibly go overseas, we can see this animalistic, selfish, greedy, devolving, exploitative, inhuman decline only continue.

Not to mention offpeopling: jobs being made redundant (e.g. replacing PCs with thin client and terminal server solutions, software as a service (e.g. perpetual licensing: money for nothing, like Microsoft's Software Assurace only more encompassing), and so on.

So enjoy life while you can. Your fellow American doesn't care either way. And morals and ethics have to come down from the top - or else they don't exist. Brain drain. It does a country good. (except for the country that's being drained... oops.)

1. You know...
NEC could probably make a nice little profit if they re-released their TurboGrafx 16 titles on discs for the newer systems (say Gamecube) the way other game companies are doing with their nostalgic titles. I know they used Hudson Soft to help with the software, not sure what the relationship is with any of them anymore.
