    I’m starting to think that most “business” leaders have the skills of a Trump. It’s all puffery.

        They don’t get anything done they just ask other people to do stuff. Their job is to nag you and stress you out until you do stuff

      Have you ever talked to a CEO? Like, sit down and talk face to face? Their are dumb as rocks. They are dumb as rocks and make all the money, and just move around from company to company, running them into the ground.

        Yes. My last 3 were excellent businessmen and treated employees exceptionally well.

        The one before that was a buffoon, but that was a tiny 13-person company. Our main vendor said, “He’s a man who has found great success despite himself.”

      During americas “great” years a lot of the research and development was guided by long term USA policy. We are no longer guided by any sense of what’s to come. It’s a greedy grab all free-for-all. No rules no restrictions, just have fun and make lots of money.

        Ivy league degrees are only impressive if you’re poor. Any idiot multimillionaire or above can buy one for themselves.

          Ivy League schools were never about education. They’ve always about making connections with other elites.
