Being just a wife with virtually no background in business or political science formal educations, sometimes the ironies of life can raise interesting questions. Such as, how is a hostile takeover of one business by another business group different than “civilized” warfare? Whereas a business is equivalent to an independent country, the CEO equivalent to the leader of a country, the Board of Directors being a War Panel, chief investors being officers, average investors being citizens, and customers being tourists.

Weekly Hogen (Okinawan Dialect) :

Hogen – wan (??)
