Does anyone know if there is still publications like the objectives essays that were captured in books like Capitalism the unknown ideal?

I would love (and pay well) for some research about why Worldcom and Enron failed and why the laws that were put in place to "stop" it from happening again wont work. Or what ahppened with the suit against boing to keep them from moving. Or what Core education guidlines are likely to miss educate our kids on... point is there is a lot out there and little scientific and well researched data to combat it with. Such essays would be very useful knowledge to have at hand when talking with a person who is not yet brain dead, but headed that way in favor of larger government. It would provide very useful talking points backed with good data. Such articles are in dire need of being researched and written. I know of no such publication but would love to buy it if one exists.

    I couldn't have said it better. However, I do believe that even stupid CEO's can be persuaded with time and effort. Of course, I'm just a naive 65 year old former entrepreneur that is sick and tired of the often rude and incompetent "customer service" in our nation.

    We can and will do better.

    In many instances I've found "customer service" to take it's cues from animal husbandry. They service their customers the way a bull services a cow.

    Dear Xenok Roy,

    I found your background interesting, especially the management of customer service centers.

    I would be interested in your philosophy and management style regarding customer service.

    My own feeling is that very few businesses and people even understand the words "customer service."

    Several years ago I was in the process of starting up a company that would teach "real customer service" with the emphasis on service.

    Perhaps, it's again time to look into this situation.

    I would be interested in learning more about your resume.

    Sincerely yours,

    Fred Speckmann

    Have you looked into Virginia at all? There are quite a few jobs paying well. I live in Shenandoah county, and if you find something here I can help house hunt!

    Utah,

    For the last 13 years I have been managing customer service centers, before that I did consulting, customer support, System Engineer and a 6 month stent in testing. I like fixing things not breaking them :) testing was not for me.

    I was working for a German company this spring that decided it would be cheaper (thanks to affordable care act) to operate out of Germany than the US. I have not had much luck getting something else, and not wanting to take unemployment (yes I am justified to do it, but it also validates them taking it in the first place) I have picked up several jobs to make enough to get my family by until I can find a job in my field again that pays a bit better. leaves much less time for reading articles and such.

    thanks for the response. I knew there had to be some stuff out there, and would normally just start searching. I was being lazy and wanted to save some time - get ideas. I need to start reading more again as I miss it.

    hey, Xenok. missed you.
    check out the Atlas Society's Business Rights Center-

    As well, my husband wrote a book that deals in part with what happened in the case of WorldCom and the unintended consequences of the laws passed that have not stopped fraud but have stopped businesses from going public. there are always huge unintended consequences in the passage of laws hastily written in reaction to business fraud. In the end, like murder, there are sufficient laws in place. It does not stop all murder or fraud.
