Actually, if you have an MBA (a Master's degree, by the way) you can
have your pick of high paying, high rank jobs, although to a lesser
degree than during the glory days of Enron. This poses another
problem-young people who think they're "brilliant" because they've
always been told that they are get a leg up on the corporate ladder and
proceed to run companies into the ground, just like Skilling "I was
brilliant" did with Enron. But yes most "brilliant" young university
graduates find themselves working as burger flippers because all the
jobs have been exported to China.



MBA = Master of Business Annihilation They can destroy any business,
any time, any where.


All they need are some BS degree holders, and they're virtually
unstoppable in enriching themselves while shafting the shareholders and
employees. Since they usually make a lot of friends among high ranking
politicians while doing so (birds of a feather fly together) they're all
but immune from prosecution when the house of cards they've created
comes crashing down, and they end up keeping all the loot they've
plundered while the shareholders and employees end up with zilch. Even
if the politicians do decide to make an example out of them, they
usually get only a slap on the wrist and come out of the country club
prison smelling like money, since they still have it all. Now we have an
MBA President who is doing exactly this to the whole country if not the
world, making himself rich while the till gets bled dry and the little
people die, borrowing massive amounts of money to keep the cards propped
up just like Skilling did at Enron, and when the crash comes he'll fly
off to a private island in the South Pacific while the rest of us
starve.

Have you ever noticed that the most brilliant business minds never
finished college, or in some cases never went to college? Bill Gates,
Richard Branson, Ted Turner. John D. Rockefeller was a bookkeeper by
training. Henry Ford was a restless tinkerer who had little use for
anything that wasn't mechanical. Thomas Edison was the same way. The
people with the least formal business schooling are the ones turning
trash into cash, while legions of MBAs turn cash into trash.
