A little over a year ago, I postulated on the the psychology behind today's economy.

The old economy, I said, was personified in the classic “Greed is good” speech by Gordon Gekko as played by Michael Douglas in the 1987 Oliver Stone classic, Wall Street.

Gekko returns in Stone's sequel, Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps. It's different this time. Today's economy is made up of people that Jay Suhr calls “The Cautionary Generation”.

You'll have to wait until September 24 to see the movie, but you can read about it now in my blog post, The Return of Gordon Gekko, in the Small Business Advocacy Blog of which I am the Editor.

There's a new blog out there, and it's one uniquely focused on small business and business owners. It's sponsored by the Small Business Advocacy Council (SBAC). Here's our mission statement:

The Small Business Advocacy Council (SBAC) was established to give small business owners, their employees and those with whom they conduct business a voice in local, state and federal politics. The SBAC is a non-partisan 501 (c) (6) not-for-profit political organization, whose goal is to advance advance the causes important to small businesses.

Additionally, the group seeks to strongly support our members by providing networking, advertising and promotional opportunities that will sustain those that care enough to stand with small business and hard-working Americans.

I say "our" because I am a member and the Editor of the new blog which is appropriately called the Small Business Advocacy Blog. 

If you're a business owner, consider joining us. Here's how.
