Yeah, look what that Ayn Rand fanboy Edward Lampert did to Sears. Took the collective efforts of tens of thousands of people working over decades to build up that company to what it was. Took one stupid CEO to plunge it into troubled waters.

Sears? Never heard of it.

Everytime you think about the fact that half of people have an IQ under 100, and that an IQ of 100 is actually pretty dull, the stupidity of humanity becomes quite clear.

That's pretty bleak when you put it that way.

Think about it!
