This post is interesting. Entrepreneurship is absolutely essential for the future of the U.S. economy. Working as an employee, saving money in a 401(K), and working until your’re 65 just isn’t going to cut it for people or sustain their retirements. People need to be encouraged, beginning in grade school, that starting your own business is more valuable than being an employee.

Shh, keep it a secret. ;o)
Trust me, haha, no matter what they do, people in this country have too much of an entitlement mentality. They love their entitlement checks, pension checks, etc. The majority of our population doesn’t have the will and the desire to be real entrepreneurs. So I wouldn’t worry.

Nope, I’m not worried. The world is full of sheep and always will be — at least they have cozy wool sweaters in the winter. ;o)
