"But we learn from history, every time, that it is good when an industry becomes obsolete."

Entrenched factions always protest against emerging disrupters. Luddites will always be with us in one form or another. Whether the government cooperates with the old guard or not only slows down the progress of change, but it can never extinguish it. The best leaders are those that recognize the tidal waves for what they are and:

  • surfs them, or,

  • gets out of the way

Everyone else just gets left in the dustbin of history.
