As a small business owner I agree with the advice Mark Cuban provided to PE Obama.
Cuban feels that Obama is making a mistake in creating an economic team that has not a single (self-made business man or woman) ---entrepreneur on it.
“There are a lot of great minds on the list:
Robert Rubin, Larry Summers, Laura Tyson, who served as Clinton's top economic adviser; former Fed Vice Chairman Roger Ferguson; Time Warner Inc. Chairman Richard Parsons; former Securities and Exchange Commission chairman William Donaldson and Xerox Corp. Chief Executive Officer Anne Mulcahy.
Google Inc. CEO Eric Schmidt, Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm and Roel Campos, an ex-SEC commissioner, and Warren Buffett are also on the advisory board.” Mark Cuban
I have not personally researched any of these folks, however, I take Cuban at his word.
Being a 1099 small business owner myself and seeing over 50% of my earnings go toward operational cost, I would welcome people in government who could relate to my endeavors.
Obama will not be allowed by (public opinion) to side-step or hoodwink the grass-root (economy movers and shakers).
I would hope that PE Obama provide us folks on main street with the main ingredients and ideas to grow and expand from the ground up, as opposed to having us look upon “a semester's worth of great guest speakers for an MBA class” as our economic leaders.
PE Obama we need transparency from the ground up---by those means we can form a foundational force of economic growth for the future of our children.
