What could help ease off the skepticism including the"I know, I told you so, it won't work" mentality for it to become a reality, or is it an embedded mentality in us that keeps us from moving forward even with the best of intentions?

Only joking. No chance that the head of the communist party and his associate would have much good to say about the virtues of the capitalist economic system and business enterprise. Truth is though that unless and until the leadership gets behind i…

Their standard party trick is to host a number of road shows and the like with appetizing appeals for constituants to attend. They then have all attendees sign the attendance register to demonstrate to their respective boards their level of active support around the country and the fact that they do engage direc… Continue
