Is it still Japan, or is it all of ASIA or is the enemy of today "OURSELVES" ?

Walt Kelly first used the quote in 1970 "We Have Met The Enemy and He Is Us"

@starview1

You fail to name the long list of right wing idiots.... convenient!

Also, Management is the problem. All these hot-shot CEO's that have thumbed their noses at Deming over the years because THEY want to be the star who shows a big short term profit - then slither on to another company for more pay, while the company they left suffers at their mistakes!

Read up on Demings's 14 points.

@murphicus Demming & many others have tried to make us, USA, a quality & leader in more than just manufacturing - in all elements of business.Yes, it is a futile efforts when our society elects idiots like Obama & literally ruins businesses, transforms industries for the worse, & eliminates the incentives for success. Thanks to all of these great thinkers that have tried to make us, USA, successful but until Americans can see past fools and foolish promises from idiots like Obama, we will fail.

@vfullmer Sorry, but that's really an over the top stretch to bring Obama into the conversation. Let's start with Ronald Wilson Reagan who was the biggest promoter of corporate greed in our times. The problem is at the top of the corporate culture which is all about making money for the top people/investors and then leaving for the next group to screw over. Read a book on Deming and the 14 Points and learn.

@TavernacleRecords I honestly think this republic has no one to blame but itself. Dr. Deming told this nation to get its act together, and unfortunately, his teachings fell upon deaf ears. Its actually pretty pathetic that all this nation had to do was listen to 2 guys(Deming and Juran), and we could've stayed the manufacturing powerhouse that we once were. I'm actually so ashamed of my nations nowadays that I actually list my nationality and "stateless". That is how much I hate my nation.

@murphicus I agree...transformation definitely has to start at the top. To whom does the organization answer (usually whoever is paying for its operation) and what do they reward? I've had recent experience with a manager who tried to do the right things right but was crushed by a boss who has done a number of things to hurt the organization, often in direct opposition to the organization's purpose. Why is this boss still there? Simple: because he brings in revenue, so the cost is ignored.
