When is Enough-Enough?
Very ironic for a celebrity who “supports” workers rights. Business is Business, but how much money do some of these guys think they need? Bruce is just the latest to go against what they represent to add to their vast fortunes. Many have preceded him.
Greed is why we’re in the mess we are currently in, with no viable solutions in sight. Anyone care to rationalize?
Springsteen calls Wal-Mart deal a mistake

NEW YORK (AP) — The Boss is owning up to a mistake.
In an interview with Sunday’s New York Times, Bruce Springsteen says he shouldn’t have made a deal with Wal-Mart. This month, the store started exclusively selling a Springsteen greatest hits CD.
Some fans were critical because Springsteen has been a longtime supporter of worker’s rights, and Wal-Mart has faced criticism for its labor practices.
Springsteen told the Times that his team didn’t vet the issue as closely as he should have, and that he “dropped the ball on it.”
Springsteen went on to say: “It was a mistake. Our batting average is usually very good, but we missed that one. Fans will call you on that stuff, as it should be.”
Springsteen released his new CD “Working on a Dream” this week and is performing the halftime show at the Super Bowl.

I have to admit “The Boss” nailed the Super Bowl half time show this evening. One of the best I’ve seen (except for Janet Jackson-NOT).
Hello, is anybody out there, or am I just the Piper At The Gates of Dawn?

Yeah, still here, here, echo, echo.

I’m not a fan of his music, but he did a great job on the halftime show.
