Fudzilla has reportedly published the complete email/memo from Dirk to AMD employees regarding the layoffs and ending of 401k matching, etc.

It's hard to imagine a more bleak situation for AMD's employees and shareholders.

I can imagine one...if AMD hadn't made that Foundry Co deal, they would have been out of business sometime this year.

But wait, you have kept saying that it has been worse for AMD in the past - such as the mid 90's.

I guess you forgot about those posts.

Sigh...did the drugs finally kick in??
Please tell me where I said today's economics (any post in the last 2-3 months will do) were better than any in the past.
I sometimes think you just post to hear yourself type...

He got ya. I read most his post . Idon't recall him saying such, Since the Rothschild destroyed our banking system. Which they control LOL.

Damn, I vowed to not go to P&N anymore and then ran into this in the CPU forum!

Side note...I feel about the same as those poor folks at AMD..as I currently work (at least for now) in the automotive industry and my pay and benefits are being shredded before my eyes (not to mention my investments and retirement money - or lack thereof now).

I nominate a lock on this thread....too political for this forum.

It's my thread, and I made a comment specifically regarding the P&N content contained therein.

It's OK provided it stays in this thread. Even the matrix had to allow for the existance of imperfections in order for the other 99% of the simulation to remain under control. So we have one questionable thread roiling around in the CPU forum, I'm not going to call foul. Let the healing continue.

If the FBI would do its job . I bet alot of money managers would go to jail . I mean lots . Freaken crooks. They didn't know he did anything wrong till he took off.

Americans should call for Full scale investagation of all money managers. Than watch the fall out . Than we will know why this shit really happened.

Crime happens even in prison and jail. The world's most rigorously enforced regulation and oversight isn't going to stop criminals like Madoff and this guy in Florida from scamming people. See gun laws. Now this guy Madoff is a particularly interesting case from the early reportings as the SEC had plenty of early tip-offs they allegedly chose to ignore.

But its not really the FBI that does this job, it is the SEC, the NFA, and the CTFC. The FBI gets called in as federal police to enforce the penalties of breaking regulations. But no regulatory board, oversight committee, or independent auditor is going to work for free and they also aren't going to work with the same zeal for uncovering illegal plots as some criminals are going to work all the harder to outwit them. We can't regulate and end to crime, only minimize it.
