This guy from Home Depot was just paid $210,000,000 to leave. I have been fired before and never saw a penny. What justifies this crap? How can these corporations get away with this? I mean $210 million is ALOT of money. This is how this guy gets rewarded for failing at his job while millions of American workers get canned and have trouble feeding their families. I believe in free enterprise but come on. What can we do about this? Thoughts?

UNBELIEVABLE. And disgusting. This is part of the problem with this country today. The rich (mostly undeserving) get richer, and the poor seem to stay stuck in a rut. This guy doesn't deserve that much money. A normal severance package maybe, but not even many companies do that anymore either... What a joke.

I wished somebody would pay me to leave LOL! Must be the same rules that let oil company CEOs get billions in retirement packages and profits, yet continue to raise the price of gas. I too am all for anyone making a buck, but c'mon!
