Mainly, My Job Is To Be On

Growth Isn't Central At All, Because I'm Trying To Run This Company As If It's Going To Be Here A Hundred Years From Now. And If You Take Where We Are Today And Add 15% Growth, Like Public Companies Need To Have For Their Stock To Stay Up In Value, I'd Be A Multi-trillion-dollar Company In 40 Years. Which Is Impossible, Of Course.

I'm The Company Philosopher And The Burr In The Saddle. I'm The One Who Says We Need To Try Harder, Improve The Quality Of Our Products, Become A Part Of The Political Process, Help Elect People Who Are Good For The Environment.

You Have To Remember This Was The '60s, When Climbing Was Dangerous And Sex Was Safe.

The Solution May Be For A Lot Of The World's Problems Is To Turn Around And Take A Forward Step. You Can't Just Keep Trying To Make A Flawed System Work.

So All Of These Companies That Are Going For The Big Growth, If It Continues For Any Length Of Time, Will Outlast Their Resources And Outlast Their Customers And Go Belly-up. And That's Why These Huge Companies Have Massive Layoffs All The Time.
