Many in the past, our should we accurately say, that a few who were short sighted ones, thought that nepotism was bad or wrong, and that is should be stopped and erased from the shores of the land.

However, those we some of the strongest and best of breed. One might even say, they were the best of class. And we wonder why?

We laughed at our brethren overseas, for thinking about family and continuity. Saying that what was good for the company, was good for the people. And others took it as far as saying, "What is good for the company, is good for the world."

And, in the far past, and in the far away lands, that was true, until those short sighted few gained power and their honorific minds took control.

Those few decided that the family was a bad thing, and that it should not matter in the world of technology or the business of the company.

So, slowly, but surly, the devised ways to prove that the family was bad and destructive. That the family was so self-centered, that it permeated the technology and the company. That mean that nepotism need to be crushed.

We did not want the family to have its members involved, and we wanted to remove their wealth, because that was what we did not have. Although both the family owned and control technologies an companies, were the strongest and the best of bread.

Those family owned and control technologies and companies were the pillars of the past. You knew a technology or a company by the name of the family, not by the name of the company. 

And, that had a very strong affect on the technology and company. If the family name was bad, then we knew that the technology or company was bad, and if the family name was good, we knew that the technology or the company was good.

Just by knowing the family, we had a rather uncanny idea about the qualities of the other people and things within it. And, from that basis we understood the resulting technology and company.

And, there was the added benefit of pressure. Not just the pressure from the public knowledge, but the internal pressure from the family. The family knew that if the technology or company did poorly, then that was a great reflection on the family. But, even more so, if the family did poorly, that was even worse for the technology and company.

This caused the family to keep the family in all aspects of the entity. And, it also caused the family to want to be a part of the entity. It was like family pride. You could say your name, and the world knew who you were, and what you stood for. And, it did not matter if they said the name of the family, technology, or company. Because in nepotism, it was all one and the same. The family, the technology, the company.

And, when times were troubled, the family did not have the luxury that technology and the company have today. Back then, in the near distant past, the family had to think outside of the box, and come up with solutions to make the technology safe, and the company survive. 

"Why?"

Because the technology and the company were the family. You could not abandon either, because both were part of the family.

You could not simply say, "Let's kill this product line." Because part of the family's life desires were in getting the product line to work. And, killing that product meant killing a part of the family. Therefore, you had to think outside the box of destructions and come up with a plan of action, to save the product.

You could not simply say, "Let's reduce the work for." Because part of that workforce, was part of the family. And, you could reduce the numbers at the office, but you could not reduce the numbers at the next family outing or re-union. Oh no, you would have to face those faces for the rest of your natural born days.

But today, that has all changed. And simply because a few sort sighted ones, wanted to destroy the family.

Why? Well, there are many, many, many reasons for which they wanted to do this.

They wanted power, but did not have the strength to create their own. 

They wanted innovation, but did not have the mind to think on their own.

They wanted control, but did not know how to control their own minds.

They wanted riches, but did not see the riches that lay at their feet.

They wanted secrets, but the secrets were there in the open, where they could not see them.

In their minds, they thought that the family was too powerful and controlling of the thing that they wanted.

But, they did not know, that the power and control was all theirs. They did not understand that they gave up their own, and made the others.

And, in that short sightedness, they thrust the failures of their own family onto the families of the technology and company owners. The failures in their own family known as greed and envy

Yes, the short sighted ones wanted to kill nepotism, because of their own greed an envy. The greed and envy that was and still is, eating them alive.

And so, the world suffers.
