No the point is, you feel that executives are to blame for the plight of the little guy. Not in this case. I showed you the math.

Sears failked because people like you, despite how much you claim to care about the little guy, like the prices at Wal Mart. Everybody wants to save at Wal Mart and Amazon.

Sears chairman and former chief executive Eddie Lampert has made nearly $1.4bn (£1.1bn) off his investment in the company, thanks to performance fees, dividends and other payments.

Meanwhile, its top 340 executives were collectively granted a potential $25m in bonuses in December, just months after the firm declared bankruptcy.

Another example of the little guy getting screwed whats the chances they all voted democrat anyway like what Trump said about the shutdown

“The 3.7 percent unemployment is definitely exciting, but it’s not the full story,” said Martha Gimbel, research director at Indeed.com’s Hiring Lab. “Part of what we all care about is not just the low unemployment rate, but that people are employed in good jobs and that they can get the hours they want.”

Pick a good company instead of a crappy one.

Get her into training that maximizes what she can do, or help her to move her into a better field. If she is reasonably smart and has a good work ethic she can do well. Bettering one's self is a far more effective solution to making your life better than bitching about "The Man" or being the target subject in class politics.

Sears failed because they had a terrible model, terrible management, and terrible practices.
