Recently this post from Kevin O'Leary came across our news feed on LinkedIn.

O’Leary stars on a produced "reality show" on ABC called Shark Tank. He even has a nickname - "Mr. Wonderful". Shark Tank is like American Idol for business owners, where their business ideas are presented to a panel of judges who comment, invest and or dress down the idea with aggressive negative language.

In fact, that same entitled sand-kicking in your face discourse follows Mr. Wonderful into his Social Media accounts. Check out the language in the above post from the Shark Tank actor.

What you do not see is the conclusion to that sentence which basically says you should take the business out back behind the shed, barn or house and “shoot it.” Here’s another one of his Wonderful posts.

This is coming from a man who receives millions in government grants, tax breaks, economic development money and access to politicians who are in charge of The People's Money. Check out this press release from the state of North Dakota. Keep in mind these are North Dakota employees, getting paid by North Dakota taxes.
