Bad Business

This story is just the latest of what I term "Bad Business" in America.

I've always said that the anti-business attitude in America today is mostly thanks to Business.

There was a day when the working conditions were so bad that something had to fill the gap or vacuum & that is how Unions gained a massive toe-hold in America.  What a mess that has become.

Today's Business is sliding back to a place where the worker is being taken advantage of in the form of lower wages, longer hours, reduced staff = more job responsibilities, or even any new positions with cut-rate salaries.

Business is taking advantage of the economic situation and like the mistakes of the past it will lead to more long-term consequences that helps the few (Union leadership) & not the many (the actual worker).  I cringe at what is going to fix the situation.

Business cry's about Government intervention but they are actually inviting it through their short-sighted policies & practices.

The Left jumps on this & creates a perception of Business being Business taking advantage of the worker while making a quick buck.

Whereas its actually a failure of Business by forgetting its Judeo-Christian roots while storming towards the Ayn Rand model of the superman utopia which invites the other Humanistic swamp of Socialism to step in to solve that problem.  And round it goes, the very definition of Insanity.

When viewed through the lens of Human Nature both Rand as well as other Humanist philosophies fall short, straight into a quagmire of failed dreams & fantasies.  The death & destruction that these fantasies have actually caused are far greater than the falsely accused problems it was supposed to solve or replace, Judeo-Christian beliefs.

Until Business and Americans understand the context of our problems we will be doomed to unrealistic, short-sighted, & more times highly destructive "solutions".
