The term 'Kamikaze' crops up frequently in the media out of its original context. For example, the UK chancellor used the same term to describe the bankers who created the housing bubble (http://bit.ly/Qdmlj) - so I don't see how it can be tasteless.

I'm sure if a company started giving away free cars in the hope of charging for premium petrol then they would probably attract similar (if not stronger) adjectives. And the workers in the plants making cars for money would certainly get caught in the shrapnel.

As for my blog being ugly - I couldn't agree more.
