Lessons for the past...we are a REPUBLIC and not a DEMOCRACY.

Moving ahead...

Over the past few days we have witnessed a major, but quiet, revolution and a reaffirmation of the strong foundation of our US Republic. The Obama administration learned that the US was not a nation of "serfs" and peasants who would follow the whims of a pretend leader... it showed that would speak out against any attempts to move the country into a "redistribution of wealth"/ socialistic and communistic state.

Scott Brown has become a celebrity because he said that "my constituents don't want SOCIALIZED medicine, because we already have a similiar system and I will fight to prevent it" This demonstrated that we are not a DEMOCRACY, but a REPUBLIC and each state has power.

The major impact was not stopping the SOCIALIST movement but just a reminder that it is not easy to REVOLUTIONIZE our country but it will take EVOLUTIONARY change.
Another major result is real, good and predictable jobs.

The U.S. MUST RECLAIM ITS MANUFACTURING leadership and provide manufacturing jobs.. I liked OBAMA idea he expressed in his campaign... TAX those who export jobs and give the FUNDS to those who create GOOD US JOBS.

I want to congratulate JEFF IMMELT for taking the leadership role in creating new manufacturing and R&D jobs in the United States...now we need to get the rest of the Fortune 500 to do the same. This combined with investing in new venture businesses will help restore the American Dream and provide the security we have enjoyed since WWII.

Keep tuned for new insights in strategic thinking that matters and restores management to THINKING IN THE BOX and NOT JUST DREAMING OUT OF THE BOX...
