Carly Fiorina, the only female clown in a car of male clowns that is the GOP candidate car, has written a new opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal, called "Hillary Clinton Flunks Economics." Here's a sample:
Families who can’t save for retirement with near-zero interest rates. Young parents who are being crushed by their student debt. Shop owners who can’t get a loan because their community bank went out of business.
OOOPS I didn't mean to quote those sentence fragments and Quayle-esque grammatical errors like "families" with the word "who" instead of "which," or other incomplete sentences.
Maur Carly Lies:
92% of the jobs lost during Mr. Obama’s first term—when Mrs. Clinton was secretary of state—belonged to women...
Problem with this tidbit: this line was tries before for 2012, but the
reality is
First, many of those job losses were in education, thanks to state and local governments getting a smaller stimulus in 2009 than Mr Obama requested because of opposition from congressional Republicans. More important, the downturn that preceded Mr Obama’s arrival simply hit male-dominated industries such as manufacturing first, and female-dominated industries later.
Some other BS from Carly:
African-American unemployment is almost twice as high as the national average.
Hmmm, not that I believe Carly gives a crap about non-whites. Or that this is some kind of new phenomenon, as opposed to something independent of Obama's term (the term with which the person Carly's headline attacks is associated). Here's a fuller story of unemployment in the Obama years:
OMG, a downtrend (unemployment from '09-now) thats something other than HP's stock during the Fiorina's tenrue
Maybe Carly should answer why her time is HP is one of the most read about case studies at business schools across America, and possibly even the world. You can find them easily:
-The Merger of Hewlett-Packard and Compaq (A): Strategy and Valuation
-The Merger of Hewlett-Packard and Compaq (B): Deal Design
-The Merger of Hewlett-Packard and Compaq (C): Epilogue
Having been in business school for a masters program, I can assure you that those case studies are not a profile in excellence.
