VIDEO: Fiorina Is A Job Killer
written by Robert Greenwald and Tanene Allison
In these economic times, California needs to focus on the creation of jobs.
Brave New Films has released the latest video in our series on Carly Fiorina, this video focuses on her record as CEO of Hewlett-Packard.
Carly Fiorina likes to tout her business experience from when she was CEO of Hewlett-Parkard, but leaves out the most important part of her track-record. During Fiorina’s tenure, she laid off 30,000 workers and shipped their jobs overseas to India and China.
Listening to the voices of those laid off workers will show you the Real Carly:
“After 21 years and 18 months shy of retirement, I was laid off…I lost about 50% of my retirement nest egg by believing what she was saying.” – Mike Angles, Laid-off Manager – Hewlett Packard??
“The layoff was very hard. We’ve gone from two cars in the driveway and all things you would need…and now we are trying to remodify our loan…a matter of fact, now we’re on food stamps.” – Susan Walsh, Laid-offExecutive Assistant – Hewlett Packard.
In these tough economic times, we need to bring jobs to the state, not ship them overseas.
Check out the rest of the videos in this series to learn more.
