''Regardless, government wants to centralize regulatory authority in an organization that is part of the core problem. It is a king-sized error. It puts the fox in charge of the hen house.'' One of the great problems in today's synthetic world is the inability of people to get a firm grip on reality.
Whatever world you live in, real or imagined, it seems real to you. How can you determine if you're living in a real or imagined world?
To those who work hard each day, or watch their family break apart, or become a victim of crime, their worlds seem very real. Truth is a great revealer of reality. Failure makes clear that someone made a faulty assumption and it resulted in an altered reality.
If I'm living in an unreal world, how do I know truth when I find it? Good question! Your search for truth may find that your business model has conflicts of interest, lost profits, and, sometimes, downright fraud and deception. Your personal model, when evaluated, may provide some hard-to-swallow truths, too. One way to avoid losing your path is to write (or hold in your heart) personal and business philosophy statements. Evaluate what happens in your life periodically against your stated intentions.
When a business model is created on the basis of "what will the market bear?" rather than "what is the best way to meet consumer needs?" a synthetic business model results. The "what the market will bear" philosophy leads to roads destined to destroy success, both personal and business. http://www.newswithviews.com/Barnewall/marilyn119.htm
