This has to be one of the saddest statements of our current economic state that I’ve heard so far. It’s bad enough that we’ve ruined so many formerly-wild animals’ ability to feed and take care of themselves (converting them into semi-domesticated scavengers of human cast-offs), but now we’re doing the same to our own business enterprises?

Sigh.
