bailed out:
Citigroup, recipient of a recent $25 billion dollar equity injection, bails out another 50,000 employees:
Chief Executive Officer Vikram Pandit intends to reduce headcount by about 14 percent to 300,000 in the ``near term,'' according to a presentation on the firm's Web site today. Pandit has already cut 23,000 jobs, leaving the New York-based bank with 352,000 employees as of Sept. 30.
Pesky humans, weighing down the fleet and increasingly unfettered firms of imaginary capital.
And how about that safety net for the people who will nevertheless be fired! Let's hope you can grasp that slender thread as you're falling, former Citigroup employees. We can afford to swing conditionless 25 billion dollar chunks of corporate welfare around but it would cost too much, and introduce too much moral hazard, to help you anymore than barely at all.
