Why did you say it’s a change of plan? It’s the same plan I heard.[/quote]

AN: I guess I misunderstood what you said.

Initial MOT break-up plan was to create 2 companies.- Company A headed by Mr. Jha with mobile devices and company B with govt.+ set-top box + other activities.

Then some time this year, the plan was modified – set-top box went from company B to company A.[/quote]
Ah, ok, i got it now.

Interesting discussions on the middle class:

And I don’t see any easy or quick way we’re going to come out. Consumers have to come out from under a huge massive debt load. They’re worried about their savings. They have to save more. They can’t use their homes as ATM machines, basically collateral for loans easily as they cod in the early part of the decade.

They can’t send any more people into work. In the ‘70s and ‘80s women marched into the paid workforce. They can’t work longer hours if they have jobs because many people are already holding down two or three jobs if they have work.

We have almost come to the end of the coping mechanisms as I call them that the middle class has used to prop up their purchasing power even though the mean incomes of male workers have not increased adjusted for inflation in 30 years.

It is true we have dismissed the idea of labor unions all too frequently and it is a very bad idea. Labor unions protect workers from abuses related to working hours and safety. They assure workers have a voice in pay and benefits and are not sacrificed for the benefit of the chosen few at the top.

We have to deal with the fact that a business will blame unions for high wages. It is the job of a union to protect the wages and benefits of workers who otherwise have no ability to bargain. It is time to recognize the propaganda that is circulated about the adverse consequences of unions by company management. It is also time to defend the rights of workers who are productive and critical to the success of the employer they work for.
