One of the things that most don't consider... they don't think like us. I don't mean it in a racist way. I mean, if you are raised as a Marxist, and told how good communism is, and how bad democracy and capitalism is, you won't think like a westerner.
That's why I am amazed at how fast, and how completely we rush to transfer our manufacturing capacity to China.
American management is filled with synchophants who will follow any outlandish trend if they are promised to make an extra dollar. They create havoc, and when they are done wrecking a business, they take their golden parachute and move on to wreck another business.
The liberal west needs to stop looking at everybody else through western eyes. Our views and beliefs cast other religions, cultures and politics through jaded lenses to our peril. 9/11 should have been a wakeup call but to many libs it was not. The libs only seem concerned about their own reproductive freedoms and their pocketbooks and blame all the worlds’ ill on us. Screw the communists and screw the Islamists. Armageddon seems like it will be unavoidable but it won't be us who starts it...as usual.
You have very succinctly stated what is killing America. I don't know where these business school grad's are coming from nowadays, but watching what they do is like being in a live Dilbert cartoon.
