Who the fuckity shit said my argument was about dividing $400 million among four billion people?
I forget people have trouble following comments that are longer than a couple of sentences :(
No, their point is valid. You just did a bunch of mathematics while completely ignoring the larger issue of corporations and rich executives wasting money on frivolous endeavors.
Not only that, you literally suggested that dividing the BlueJeans money among the poor of the world would do them little benefit–as if Verizon is the only company perpetrating corporate greed–which they never suggested.
Using your own numbers, $3415 dollars would probably make a huge difference in most Verizon employees' lives, but instead they spent that money on BlueJeans, a product that any reasonable person could have told you was doomed to fail.
Hope this comment wasn't too long for you.
Thanks. I don't always have the mental energy to explain or counter every statement. Love that biting last sentence. <3
