SO i guess your suggesting why even try.

My two cents are the following. Large sums of capital and resources should not be put into the hands of those incapable of putting it to good use. There was a time and that will be the case now when capital is given to those with good ideas and experience or near experience in implimenting them.

Amazon is such an obvious misallocation of capital. Two plus billion dollars were handed to Bezos to create a on-line retailer. There is nothing wrong with the idea of an on-line retailer but would it not be better to provide that capital to someone that understood retailing? Bezos' "specialty" I believe was money management. He has been able to take two billion dollars in resources and totally eliminate it. That is very sad.
