Fair enough.
I've always worked for small companies started and run by men with integrity, so I don't have your perspective or "framework". But I can read, and feel no less qualified to comment. Btw, I have a BA in Economics. It's not a huge accomplishment but I do take great interest in economic issues.
And to save you time, I didn't take your post as any kind of put down. Just wanted you to know where I'm coming from.
