Your post is all about what we believe in and our motivation for promoting The American Entrepreneur Project and its importance at this particular time in our nation’s history. Entrepreneurs and the entrepreneurial spirit are what built this country, and what will be needed to revive our economy and return to a growth trajectory once again. Moreover, we believe that the definition of entrepreneur and entrepreneurship transcend the traditional notion of a businessperson; rather, it is a mindset for anyone in any field or profession that is committed to thinking creatively to introduce new and better solutions that solve our increasingly complex problems.

I imagine anyone reading this blog has at least some entrepreneurial fire within them, otherwise they most likely would not be here in the first place to heed the advice and words of Mark Cuban, someone who successfully materialized his entrepreneurial spirit through hard work, innovation, and a belief in something greater than ordinary. Those who read this blog post and truly understand what it means, will understand what The American Entrepreneur Project is all about.

We need to create jobs by becoming Entrepreneurs and building agile companies that can respond quickly to market demands not just domestically, but internationally – Entrepreneurs have the ability to bring us out of this mess, re-build our economy, and bring us back as a world economic power in a more expeditious and timely manner than any other means, including government stimulus. I urge you all to take a look at The American Entrepreneur Project at http://www.americanentrepreneur.me – buy a t-shirt, support the movement and entrepreneurship in America. 15% of proceeds go to fund NFTE (www.nfte.com), an organization that teaches entrepreneurship to young people in low-income communities, and the remaining proceeds will go to build out an online community of Entrepreneurs and aspiring Entrepreneurs that will facilitate the ability to go to each other for knowledge and inspiration. We call the community “A.E. dot ME – short for our URL: americanentrepreneur.me – Why “dot ME” and not simply “A.E. dot com”? Because there is an Entrepreneur in all of us, and the “dot me” domain extension confirms that.

Best of luck to all of you in all your endeavors.

Healthy societies are not the result of getting filthy rich and putting this wealth back into the country. You don’t need to take my word for it, just go read the studies.

“the phenomenon he had observed within his field – that health was driven by relative difference rather than absolute material standards – applied in other areas of social policy”

“they analysed the data from all 50 US states and found the same pattern. In states where income differentials were greatest, so were the social problems and lack of cohesion.”

Countries with higher taxation and a smaller wealth gap are healthier, happier, and suffer from fewer social problems, because they are more equal.

But feel free to continue your collective delusion (where taxes are “bad” and wealth is “good”) at the cost of everyone else and the environment.

Sometimes, (Not always) you post something that is thought provoking for me and it goes against the grain of my current beliefs. Those believes are challenged and I throw out which ones I want to accept and which ones I want to throw away.

Thanks MARK!!! GO MAVS!!!

Oh and buy the Cubbies….They need help BAD!!!! =)
