Not Being Qualified to be CEO is a Positive Trait!!!

We have to reject the mindset that the primary path to good government is to become more like businesses. We must reject the mindset that believes that to qualify to be a member of congress or a senator or a governor or president requires that one be a good business leader.
 
Most businesses fall somewhere between mediocre and good. Few are worth copying. Many widely practiced business norms correlate with mediocrity, and are not worthy propagating.
 
So why would we want to import the practices of mediocrity into government?
 
Great government requires disciplined planning, disciplined people, disciplined governance, disciplined allocation of resources. Great government is begging for people that are honest, moral, and ethical. Where oh where can we find them?
