[QUOTE="ThatRobGuy, post: 61398634, member: 123415"] A retail store is a little different than a government. While there are similarities in terms of how to streamline costs and organize resources, I can see where some of those skills could carry over...I would definitely prefer a person with solid business experience running our country over a person with no business experience. ...but, retail stores have a luxury that the US government currently does not, they can set fixed prices on the goods and services they provide which allows for easier budgeting, the government can't. For example, wal-mart sells frozen pizza's for $5. If you don't pay the $5, you don't get the pizza...end of story. (Stealing exlcuded) Under the current US government model, they'd have to charge each person a different amount for that pizza based on their individual economic situation. A CEO would get charged $150 for the pizza A McDonalds employee would get charged $0.75 For a person who didn't want to work, they'd have to give them the pizza for free [/QUOTE]
