Hey my friend Chris,.......What?????  Anyway,... how`s the taco biz going?  

I`m not positive, but from what I`ve seen a lot of this kind of censoring is built into the forum software and is automated. Not sure about deleting an entire post as the result-consequence, though.

From the first link:

What`s interesting is that they don`t mention customer service. Nor do they mention product reliability, in the sense of being able to get what you intended to buy.

Another important "key word" is the enterprise marketer. The word enterprise essentially refers to huge corporate conglomerates. It`s a way to separate out a corporation from a gigantic corporation.

Catherine Austin-Fitts has been a champion for the local economy, particularly nowadays. We put our paycheck into a bank headquartered in New York, where our money vanishes into the financial catastrophe. Then we`re told we can borrow our money for many times what we earn if we lend it out.

Her main idea is to walk away from multinational banks, and start supporting local Savings & Loans, Credit Unions, and small local banks.

The result of this kind of thinking is a slow move toward focusing on the local neighborhood economy. No matter what these enterprise gurus are suggesting, if the American population begins a groundswell movement toward local small businesses, nothing is going to save the big enterprise companies.

It reminds me of politicians changing their basic positions on the basis of polling data, surveys, and town-hall meetings. It`s the difference between having a position, versus having principles.

Even the phrase "targeting small businesses" demonstrates the problem. Values and principles aren`t a "fad." They`re not momentary gimmicks to be used for manipulative marketing tactics. Yes, the process works----there are a lot of really mind-numbed robots in the world.

But if the entire economy and consumer base begins to shift toward quality, stability, local reputation, and so on, that`ll be a major problem for enterprise marketers.
