https://buscom.wordpress.com/2007/06/08/is-the-airline-industry-an-example-of-excessive-competition
Is the airline industry an example of excessive competition? Friday, Jun 8 2007. Economics divide businesses into oligopolies, monopolies or those in perfectly competitive markets. Theory doesn’t address excessive competition markets so competitive that nobody makes any money. More than 200 defunct airlines, including such notables as PanAm (1927-1991), Braniff (several existences) and TWA which lasted from 1930 until being acquired by American Airlines in 2001. Clearly there is excessive competition in ...

Thursday, May 31 2007. I posted a few days ago about people finding it hard to accept scientific results, preferring instead to rely on politicians and preachers. Here is a splendid example.

What decides who gets that top job? Thursday, May 31 2007. Leaders really consider when they make these decisions? On occasion a leader will use a top position to silence a potential critic. After a bruising battle for the leadership, typical in large companies, the loser often gets a substantial consolation prize. This appointment keeps him or her at least ostensibly loyal to the new leader and shuts down the election campaign. Appointing a former opponent can also. It is always nice to have someone who...

The Creation Museum the implications for the rest of us. Wednesday, May 30 2007. There has been much commentary about the Creation Museum, an institution which opened recently in southern Ohio, but little has been said about what this implies for economics, science, business and society at large. At one level it is all somewhat encouraging. Clearly a determined person can get almost any enterprise off the ground in this country. Be the case, their efforts will be entirely fruitless. Before going any furt...

A catechism of business cliché – with apologies to Myles na Gopaleen. Thursday, Jun 21 2007. What am I here to do? I am here to tell you that. What conveniently located fruit will we go after first? In what condition was I born? What discovery process will we apply to the onion? We will peel back its layers. What additional distance will we go? Outside what container do we need to think? What percentage do we intend to give? What do we want to obtain the maximum of for our expenditure of a buck? For an e...

The Changing Economics of Atheism. Wednesday, Jun 6 2007. The great advantage of an organized church is that it can develop and maintain a reliable income stream. Listen to any evangelical radio station or read the novels of Anthony Trollope and you quickly realize that money is the chief preoccupation of the church leaders. Finance gets a lot of time and attention in churches, managing it and to making sure it continues to flow in. Atheism has no such institutional advantages. Atheists are invisible....

Why do some people resist science? «Ecommentator Ecommentator
https://buscom.wordpress.com/2007/05/30/why-do-some-people-resist-science
Why do some people resist science? Wednesday, May 30 2007. Here is an interesting article. On a site called Edge. That I got to from the excellent Arts and Letters Daily. That explores why some people find scientific ideas so difficult to accept. It is worth reading the entire article, but one conclusion is that on the whole scientists do not enjoy much of a position of authority in modern America. Of 34 countries sampled only Turkey has a lower percentage. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. You are commenting ...

Cleared for Takeoff - The Triporati Blog. A blog for savvy travelers by the travel experts at Triporati. Learn more ». Posted by Darya Mead. When I first heard about Camp Mather. A city run family camp. We got in and decided to go again this year and had a stupendous time! It helped that we formed a little clique with two other families, hiking, hanging at the lake. And shared cocktails at one of our cabins most nights. We took two great hikes to waterfalls. One to the Hetch Hetchy. Go figure very medita...
