You seem to think America can be a nation of CEO's

Nope but it can be a nation of small businessmen and women. People who see opportunities and are willing to work to prosper for themselves.

OH BTW, small businesses employ the majority of people in the US.

Leaving aside for a second that I simply do not believe you were alive in the 1970's and early 1980's, this differs greatly from the loss of blue collar jobs then. See, at that time we were told that we'd be able to get white collar jobs, even the lesser-skilled people.

Looking at your first sentence of the above italicized passage, I would reccommend that you don't enter stand up comedy. Second, it is the same mentality of the steel workers who got caught up in the explosive change that went through the US manufacturing sector in the late 70's and early 80's.

Some whined incessantly, the vast majority moved on and prospered in other areas.

A small businessperson is a CEO, so the DaneWorld (similar in many ways to the BizarroWorld) is that, Yes, America will be a nation of CEO's. Simply put, this is insanity. Not everyone is mentally able or has the accumen to be a small business owner.

Not as CEO's they don't.

Oh, no, I am serious. You have always struck me as a middle-schooler or high-schooler with your "neener neener boo boo" responses on many occasions.

Well, we have the utterly absurd DaneWorld answer now: We'll all just be CEO's!
