To the editor:
If folk aren’t reading Jeff Fox’s column in the Saturday Examiners, they’re missing out on his testimonials of direct thoughts of issues that pertain to true knowledge to benefit your thinking power. Where we don’t have access to the knowledge of his writings, we have great opportunity to read, heed and succeed.

Last week’s column, “Life’s box of chocolate is for sale,” was very interesting and it tells of competitiveness of businesses; the why of profits, gains, losses; and, preferably, the belief that, all in all, it’s nonsensical for the mergers of companies and ’tis for percentage gain and taxwise ideas. This can be big businesses, small-profit companies, corporations in everyday life.

Why so many changes from Rx, foods, pet supplies, vehicles – well, from A to Z. Any money investments of facility or business, stands a chance of merger, due to profit and/or loss, in the books. Of course, the eye catcher is billions in greenbacks in six, seven, eight or whatever digits denote temptation, from a buyer. How confusing to the consumer, when used to certain companies or/and procedures, etc.

Remember when UPS was on strike, then settlement and a slogan followed, via two delivery companies: FED-UPS.

What we read, we become, and we become what we are by what we do and what spells success in life.

Right on, Jeff, with your pronto articles. They are necessary to expertise.
