Some jackass here started a company whose tag line was "the original idea people." They have now moved to Missouri after promising the area lots of jobs, took some money from a local city and then promptly moved to St. Louis.

The founder is a world class jackass. His Dad wears makeup, and two of his brothers are gay. All staunch Tea Partiers because the govt is going to take everything! Did I mention they got all their money from farming?

Idea people think outside the box.

The ideas they promote help foster paradigm shifts.

These shifts are essential in creating new normals.

New normals must be good things because everyone seems to have one.

One of my friends is married to an entrepreneur. In ten years of this profession I don't know what he has successfully started. He's lucky to have a supportive wife with a good job, and supportive parents that have money to invest in their son.

The thing that idea people are best at promoting is themselves.
