It works splendidly for all those MBA's with golden parachutes.

		It seems we need a system where these failures are visible earlier. If you consider the current economy a strategy game, our game dynamics incentivise bad short-term optimisation. We can blame the MBAs, but we really should see how we can propose a better system. And then convince people of that. Okay okay, I give up already.

It works for long enough to ride on the rise of the stock, and cash out.
