...make lemonade. Then sell it for a profit of 20,000 a year. Once you reach this point, if you out source your labor, you can make 50,000 a year. From here you update your equipment, place ads in the paper, and enjoy a profit of 100,000 a year. By now you've got a corporation, but you want the big guns so you give them bonuses. Then you're stocks crash, and all the moneys gone. You go to the bank and they say no, but Congress, they say yes. Not just yes but one billion dollars worth of yes. Now its the end of the year and its bonus time again. You waste all of the bailout on bonuses your executives, do not deserve. Oh dear, all the bailout money is gone, so you go back to Congress and they say yes. The people revolt and raid your stores, holding employees hostage, which costs you in compensation to their families - because let's face it, the employees are part time teens - which requires more money. By the way, this is all "fiction" and is not based on actual events.
