He has no idea about business, he's an academic and so are most of his advisors...it should come as no surprise that we're in the state we're in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3596297262609825987.post-7043275193947780062010-07-30T07:20:22.907-07:002010-07-30T07:20:22.907-07:00Teenagers are the results of their environment and...Teenagers are the results of their environment and parenting. If they didn't learn the basics as young kids, by that point, they are slowly becoming set in their ways.<br /><br />Part of those ways can include, lying and cheating to get what you want in life. I honestly believe some parents actually teach their kids to lie, cheat and steal; other kids learn it from friends. Nonetheless, they are the future of society, so we should hardly be surprised, when they exercise the same poor judgment as adults.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3596297262609825987.post-16573986316132075512010-07-29T13:17:11.735-07:002010-07-29T13:17:11.735-07:00Now you've sent me off to wish-list yet anothe...Now you've sent me off to wish-list yet another Tom "The Abstinence Teacher" Perrotta book.jennifer rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06285568306915329954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3596297262609825987.post-79781914812265583992010-07-29T08:13:51.673-07:002010-07-29T08:13:51.673-07:00Wow!

Or are we capable of drawing the line between what is politics as usual and what we will not tolerate? The books you cited provide much insight as to whether we have a culture of cheating that starts early in school and continues through tax time, elections and beyond. Interesting stuff.SU15 MGMT 6321.01 https://www.blogger.com/profile/05375251070387520156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3596297262609825987.post-46625737280397427612010-07-29T07:12:48.306-07:002010-07-29T07:12:48.306-07:00I enjoyed this.

I really liked your use of novels to exemplify the problems in our whole electoral process.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901059249310314236noreply@blogger.com
