The post is titled "Corporate Anorexia". One of the paragraphs follows:
"I believe what we're seeing in the corporate world today is corporate anorexia. I described last week the horrendous 9-step race-to-the-bottom that has driven corporations to abandon quality, sacrifice domestic workers, and gouge and sue customers in the never-ending, desperate attempt to keep in the good books of insatiably demanding shareholders. You can see the unhappiness in the faces of today's executives, and the weakness and vulnerability of the depleted corporations that they lead in their financial statements and forecasts. Meanwhile, fawning consultants, instead of warning about the shortage of innovation, investment and long-term strategy, are making excuses for it. It's insane, it's unsustainable, it's bad for consumers, workers and the economy, and it's irresponsible. You can no more cut your way to corporate greatness than you can starve yourself to health."
