OPINION | Just another family business By Tony Samson READ:
Hint: it has nothing to do with ideology or an economic philosophy of how wealth should be redistributed. The political party here is driven by individuals and their dynasties. The party is not distracted by ideologies or political platforms. There is no such thing as a conservative party that promotes small government and a strong private sector, making life easier for business, including those merging together or putting up new ones.
There are no politically affiliated think tanks promoting a particular ideological view. What we have are economic forecasting groups, polling organizations, investigative reporters, and political analysts dwelling on territorial disputes with another nation. These are always available for interviews, seminars, and rolling out thought pieces for publication. They provide a point of view packaged in articulate and research-based talking points.
If politics is a business, does business also have to be political? As John Stuart Mill in his classicso well understood, the two branches of study are as intertwined as Siamese twins. The businessmen understand that not all decisions are corporate in nature. Too late sometimes comes the realization that one family business can intrude on another.
