Another Week Has Gone By

Another week has gone by. So tell me what has changed in your world? The stock market is in the middle of a roller coaster cycle caused by a ton of unregulated activity.Can you tell me when it became envogue to bet on someone elses failure in real life and not on a playing field? I always thought the American dream was for everyone to achieve some sort of success. I may be idealistic but isn't that what the "dream" stands for?

There is also an unreal amout of political finger pointing going on. To put it nicely its a he said she said situation at best. The bottom line is none of the politians can agree long enough to determine the best course for our country! These supposed educated people appear to become extreamely narrow minded when they enter the district of Columbia. THose same elected officials are there to represent the people that voted them in. Can you see me laughing? I wish you could!

Still more time has passed and as business people we have a responsibility. A responsibility to the people who work for us and work with us. We have a responsibilty to the community. To actively be a part of the community. To "set the standard" in the community. To require more of those around us than they thought possible. To expect more of our public servants as well.

WHat bench mark will we set going forward. We have just come through a period of time when alot of promises have been made so people can attain positions the think are important. Can we set benchmarks for them the way we do for ourselves and our businesses. I think we should! I think then there would be a true vote on actions or accomplishments and not mere promises. WHo holds those who are in public office accountable? I want to know. Let's talk.
