    their place on the boards of directors, and are now guiding companies. Rather,
    they are suck-ups, who, with no sense of responsibility to their stockholders,
    let alone, society at large, are guiding their corporations, right onto the
    iceberg.

    Mitch, according to my understanding of capitalist theory this is good. I
    believe it was Marx that complained that a capitalist society was in a constant
    stage of change. Marx was right but he didn't understand that is what makes
    us strong.
           If we are to have beneficial change this group, that are as you
    describe them, has to go. Right now they seem to have the idea they can survive and
    thrive by seeking out sources of cheap labor. Being thugs at heart they are
    also finding dictatorships (communist and other) that will sell them labor at
    slave labor prices.
           But these thugs will not prosper. As I see it they will be replaced
    here and elsewhere by better smarter managers. I see those managers coming
    from people such as you find on this list.
           I also see you (plural) operating in two ways, first as entreprenuers
    and investors, second in politics to demand reform.
           I don't know what you intend to do. I am retired but I hope to
    generate sufficient income to return to investing -- investing in companies that are
    led by good managers.
