Incentives are a zero sum game- unless you are a CEO or a politician
If we were in Georgia we’d be saying, our governor, sure did us a great favor- spending our tax dollars to bring that ATM/cash register company to our State. In Ohio, we have all the politicians saying “why wouldn’t they talk to us, boo-hoo.”…

Is Esrati.com the Wikileaks of Dayton Ohio?
It’s been interesting to watch how Wikileaks made the last big leak available, to traditional media first and the rest of us later. Wasn’t that the point of the web- access to everybody? But, in this information overloaded society- we still look to…
