CEOs Seeking Respect Must First Restore Lost Trust: Ezra Klein

Ezra Klein isn't much impressed by corporate execs whining that they are getting much respect in a column at Bloomberg. Here is the link.

While some criticisms of some specific individuals may be over the top, Klein makes a good point. Most of the criticism of business leaders has been brought upon those leaders by their own actions. Klein also properly acknowledges that it is more difficult to do busines in the U.S. than it should be.

Self pitying self righteousness, however, almost never works and, in fact, gets in the way of dealing with real problems facing American businesses.
