Really hits the nail on the head. Especially points 2 (cronyism) and 3 (disengaged electorate).

Would love to read it but I'm not a subscriber. Lame.

I'm going to go take one of my 6 week's of vacation time in the French Riviera of America - The Michiana shores. We're so spoiled.

I haven't been to minks, but considering it was a major com-bloc port and most of the former Soviet Union is a shit hole with a few oasis of foreign and corrupt money, why not. Though based on what I have read and my sole experience in Detroit, I would walk through any European city at night but not Detroit or Newark. In otherwords, the only think I could possibly compare those two american cities to are armpits or assholes.

The New Specialized Wind Tunnel
Will this be a game changer for Specialized, in both sales and product design, or will it not move the sales and design needle versus those in Specialized's competitive set?
Yes, Game Changer
Minor move forward
Won't budge the needle
