    We actually DO have a shortage of overpaid CEOs, as much of the entrepreneurial web of small businesses and local special interests have been bought out or bankrupted by corporate expansion and conglomeration.

    The days of petite bourgeois middling millionairehood are coming to a close. The fat dodos trundling around Middle America with their second homes and their Sea-Do outlets and their small patch of land dedicated to not growing alfalfa have all been clubbed and devoured. You’re either at the top of the food chain or you’re someone else’s dinner.
