The following is an editorial piece by Stuart Burkow. In the essence of full disclosure, I subscribe to his "Guerrilla Profits Letter." This is reprinted with his permission.
The talking heads on the major news channels continue to astound me...
Here we are at a crossroads when it comes to fiscal sanity and responsibility -- and the pundits and politicians continue to push their opinions and agendas on us... like we were children.
But spinelessness won't do any more. All things political have been proven to be, at best, ineffective -- and possibly at worst, destructive and shameful.
I can see why "Nero fiddled as Rome burned." ---> He was a politician.
So... what's a hard working business owner to do about all these morons? Well, here in the States, the process started by sending some the oldest of these specimens packing in the last election. And we've got a chance to take another shot at them in 2012.
Here are a few things I know to be true:
1) It's OUR money they're messing with... NOT theirs. They need to be accountable.
2) The rules need to apply to everyone -- NO corrupt, sweetheart, back-room deals.
3) ALL thinking and planning needs to be Long Term... NO more political bulls#*t.
And... let me make it very clear that I'm not taking political sides here. They are all full of it... unless proven otherwise by exercising fiscal sanity... and long-term planning.
This idea of "bipartisan" this... or "bipartisan" that -- is all a bunch of hogwash. (Side note: "bipartisan" is actually a code word for: "We're ALL going to screw you").
Now...
You may think I'm being harsh...
Or, you may think I'm being over-bearing on the subject.
I assure you that I am dialing back my outrage at the current state of affairs in order to "play nice." You may also think that politics has no place in Business.
But, you can rest assured that it does.
Since "they" are the ones who make the rules we business people have to live by every day. I can assure you that everything they do has a potential consequence for all those who would try to play the game of business by the rules.
