Now, as to books, heheh. Look at my book on Amazon, "The Entrepreneurial Adventure: A History of Business in the U.S." (Harcrourt, 2000).
I do deal with the offshore stuff, though my book came out in 2000, and was completed in 1999, when Japan, not China or India, was the concern. However, you might be interested in the dozen 1990s "self-made men" or women who started all sorts of unusual and successful businesses.
BTW, what I find most rewarding is the number of black students I have who gain a new appreciation for entrepreneurship and for the hard work required to make a business "go." And, as I said, what I find surprising is how many businesses (of those associated with my students) are successful (of course, I guess the failures can't afford to send their kids to a private school, though!).
...I've been testy since harpseal said I should be EXECUTED as a traitor because I don't believe in tariffs!
Yep, I kind of got in at the tail end of that. Kind of got out of hand. Harpseal has written a lot, and I agree with most of it (coming to his defense). But I did wrong - I apologize.
On a related note, I have a call in to cpusa regarding their stand on free trade. Left a message.
Discuss your last BTW para. in the near future. Have a good one.
