I'm surprised some FRiends I've posted with over the years have bought into this argument. As a business owner I've never seen "the working man" in the office with me on sat. night or sun. morning trying to figure out how to make the cash flow work.
Well my parents and grandparents were small business owners. I went to college, and wound up with a career in finance at one of the largest companies in our State.
What little business/economics is taught in High School is totally voluntary. We don’t teach the history of finance either. It leaves a lot to be desired. Citizens need to understand this stuff in order to vote intelligently.
