By not maintaining its ability to assign a value</p><p><br /></p><p>In allowing these skills to atrophy, the marketplace has surrendered these elements to the TPGs and, if it truly wants that control back, it will have to re-establish these skills, thus becoming less dependent.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, modern society likes everything to be easy . . . and, without admitting it, likes the dependent lifestyle.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
