      Because they are trying to paint him as a productive member of society. Revenue is still the measure of how much business you do.

        Ah yes, I forgot that a person’s value is measured only by how much revenue they produce.

          They didn’t claim that though? They went on to talk about other factors too. The point of mentioning revenue was to portray him as “the American Dream”, going from a small town to leading a major company.

          Keep in mind I’m not defending the guy, but I don’t see the point in being purposely obtuse

              Produced? Hard to say. Apples to apples would be managed/administrated, that’s probably in the neighborhood of $5-10 million. Why?

                Just wanted to know how close you are to achieving The American Dream.

                  Okay? Just because I understand the point they’re trying to make doesn’t mean I agree with their conclusion. I have no love for that CEO, I just think that there are enough good criticisms that we don’t have to twist people’s words into things they didn’t say.
