It is interesting to note that people with business experience almost universally made up the ranks of our nation's Founders. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone with business experience in the ranks of the current administration and that is reflected in the regulatory and other actions. With Vivek and Elon's involvement there seems to be a pendulum swing back towards President's seeking the advice of individuals with private sector experience. I asked Chat GPT for a few examples: Here’s a consolidated list of all the figures mentioned, from the Founding Fathers to modern business leaders with political involvement: George Washington John Adams Thomas Jefferson Benjamin Franklin Alexander Hamilton James Madison John Hancock Robert Morris Charles Carroll of Carrollton Samuel Adams Bernard Baruch Andrew Mellon Henry Morgenthau Jr. Donald Rumsfeld Robert Rubin George Shultz Nelson Rockefeller Steve Mnuchin Rex Tillerson Michael Bloomberg Herbert Hoover Wilbur Ross Elon Musk Vivek Ramaswamy This list includes influential figures from early American history to the present, all of whom had business backgrounds before entering or influencing government.
