For example, when Tony says "we value the contributions of our employees", what he really means is "when we look at you, we see slaves picking cotton".
And when the japanese government says "there is no risk from radiation", what they really mean is "you are all fcuked".
Politicians, and managers, are short term fixated creatures. So they lie and cover up whatever is going wrong at that instant, because by the time the chickens come home to roost, they will be gone, and can throw their hands up in the air and claim ."there is no way we could have foreseen that".
To admit a current problem means that they would have to take responsibility for it, and this is something that these types of people are simply unable to do.
That is so true.
