I wonder what the late Peter Drucker would have said about Michael Moore‘s Capitalism: A Love Story?
I think he’d be very sympathetic. Drucker’s disillusionment with the level of executive greed he saw and we see today makes it very likely that he’d be a supportive fan.

When results are poor, executives don’t deserve bonuses, right Peter?
