thinkahol * on 07 Sep 10"In the long fake boom of the Nineties and Noughties, we were sold a thousand scams. End government regulation of the financial system! Turn banks into casinos! Pay CEOs 500 times more than their staff! Bow, bow, bow before our mansion-dwelling overlords and the Total Efficiency they will bring!

It is probably in your workplace now, or coming soon. Its name? Management consultancy."
