    Hedge-fund manager Eddie Lampert took over Sears in 2013 and orchestrated moves like selling the company's Lands' End and Craftsman brands. As part of Monday's bankruptcy filing, he was removed as CEO.https://www.npr.org/2018/10/15/657395298/sears-drowning-in-red-ink-finally-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy?utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=npr&utm_term=nprnews&utm_content=2043 …

        Want to bet that CEO who led Sears into bankruptcy will be given golden parachute while the workers go empty-handed into the street? No, don’t give me BS about class warfare driven by unions. It’s driven by the rich & their agent, the Republican Party, who keep screwing workers!

        Sears Canada went under a couple of years ago. Pension benifits were the first things affected.

        Fucking dude was Gordon Gekko, a company wrecker. I really like Sears too, I hope they dont close my branch. I still buy craftman tools. Its really quiet in there, it like your own department store because there is virtually no one in it or even working in it.

        They put a hedge-funded manager in charge. What could go wrong?
