Greece--your comments on three weeks of austerity there, may fall a bit short of the mark. They are starving in the streets, soup lines are out of soup. Walk a mile in their sandals and you might take a different stand. yes this is for Joe:) Mica good luck with that bunch!!
Scarborough,
The segment on the Fortune 500 was a total misrepresentation. The ranking is based on revenue not profit. Exxon-Mobil has roughly $450 billion in revenue, but profit is only about $40 billion, 10% of revenue. Walmart has aboutr $440 billion in revenue, but profit is on the order of $17 billion, less than 5% of revenue. I know this concept is too complicated for Mika to understand, but I thought you understood it. You guys made it sound like these companies were making $400 billion in profit.
