Now, wait a minute. Didn't we just get a lecture on capitalism explaining that that no matter what, always sell your product for as much as up can possibly get, and that there is nothing obscene, or immoral about doing so?? Those executives are just capitalists who are selling themselves for as much as they can possibly get away with. Leave them alone and let them have whatever they can get. After all, that is why a small cup of popcorn costs $4.50 at the movies, so those that sell it can get insanely rich, while those who have not the money, may not enjoy the product. If you want to have a vanagon, you must play the system and make them rich. Its just capitalism at its best. Nothing wrong with that. John
