Industries to Avoid, Industries to Buy

Brother, did you stir the pot! Let me complement you on a few things. The Big Three auto makers summary is accurate. "Disregard for the consumer" you mention on their part may go down in history as something pandemic among our "latter day" corporate mind set/conspicuous status conciousness...no need to belabor the golden parachute for execs who ran the company in the ditch. I'm pointing to what I would call the mind disease of this turn of the millenia. The American Indian had it right when they described the pale face as "Wasichu"-which means spider= busy spinning webs of deceipt for the purpose of capturing and sucking dry the hapless churl, the brand racists, and the body worshiping desperate hosuewives, drooling over 'the lives of the rich and famous'- and damn morality, full speed ahead. I wonder if anyone ever really took their "Business Ethics" class seriously.
Today we watch with glazed eye as thousands of homes are systematically destroyed by fire, flood, earthquake, tornado, hurricane, and mortgage meltdown...and think it will not happen to us! A clue...it will keep happening, and even accelerate until we all fall back and rethink this whole thing. Is it really important to buy the Hummer, and the million and a quarter home, on lots "starting in the low $300,000"? Has anyone really evaluated why we are called "the great Satan"? Porn anyone? How about a trip to Vegas where nothing you do will ever come to light...a clue...every move you make in Vegas is recorded on video. And the whole world is tune in to be entertianed by our stumbling, wretched collapse.
