Pathetically confused

This is very confusing. The public sector is being slammed by the private sector. Talk about hypocrisy. Simple example: AK Steel, (according to the) April 27 Middletown Journal, had a net loss last year of $128.9 million; yet CEO (James) Wainscott still makes close to $10 million. If he would had failed that miserably as a teacher, a fireman or a nurse, he would have been canned without a moment's hesitation. You public-worker critics are pathetically confused.

I agree with Nell Teater ("Leave the name," April 26 letters). I say leave the name of Vail Middle School as it is. Why go through all that process, like she says, with paper, letterhead and all that? I say it's got a good name. Leave it that way or take a vote on it and see what comes out. I would vote for Vail.
