Further, bureaucracy still reigns supreme in our government agencies.

Atlas Society Senior Scholar Stephen Hicks, PhD, disagrees with this point of view. Most contemporary business ethics does business a disservice.

Hicks defends the egoism that drives successful business people and the morality of free-market capitalism.

Sandwiched between the Revolution and the Civil War, the War of 1812 is one of America’s forgotten conflicts, and the stalemated nature of the war (which resolved virtually none of either side’s war aims) has also ensured that it is often given merely a cursory overview. Under President Thomas Jefferson (1801-1809) and James Madison (1809-1817), the United States tried to steer a course that would keep it from being drawn into the European war and defend its neutrality on the high seas.

El lenguaje es la herramienta fundamental que marca la diferencia. Las palabras adecuadas pueden hacernos ganar y las equivocadas pueden hacernos perder. Esto es aplicable a cualquier ámbito: a la vida cotidiana, al mundo de los negocios y, por supuesto, a la esfera política. El lenguaje “ganador” en política tiene que surgir de las ideas. No hay política sin comunicación. Y dejémoslo claro desde el principio, las palabras adecuadas pueden cambiar el modo en que una persona piensa.
