Wine and War

From Wine and War by Don and Petie Kladstrup, pg 10 (quote of a quote):

"Our champagne is not just about making money. It is about bringing joy to people."

It seems to me that this attitude is dead in most big American companies. Look at Enron. Look at WalMart. There is a great sucking sound in America these days: the sound of money flowing upward into a few top managers' bank accounts. The least they could do is contribute to the quality of American communities. Instead they are leaving wastelands of strip malls and bankrupt small businesses.

I ask you corporate big-wigs: what joy are you bringing to the world around you?
