   There is business and there is business.  When a business is run by an   
   employee called a CEO who reports to a board of directors who report to   
   stockholders, that is one kind of business.  When a business is run by one   
   man who owns it, that is another kind of business.  When CEOs talk it can   
   be quite political, you do this and we'll do that.  When it is a   
   one-man-business the deals are what is important because the perks are   
   cash.
