Do you cause the market to emerge or is the market causing you to emerge?
Have you noticed an in-congruence between what the market provides and what you actually want as a product? How so? Do you find it difficult to enjoy a simple book or movie without feeling like it's trying to spoon-feed some political agenda? Have the American markets remained free or are they more constrained than they were say ...50 years ago? What would be the biggest impediments to your success if you tried to start your own business today?
I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments.

Did you know that if you invest in your career (and produce goods for society in the process) you are ACTUALLY investing in something MUCH MUCH greater without even knowing it?!
Did you, for instance, know, that THE wealth of your community comes from that activity? And the money/currency you earn only carries value with it because of the wealth developed by everyone in your nation? That's why a US dollar is worth more or less from one country to another. Your currency is only a reflection of wealth produced in your nation, not wealth in and of itself.
Here is a video where I go deeper into this subject to help explain how this fundamental part of life works. Wealth (and prosperity) is already being distributed through this process. That's why the poor in wealthy countries are far better off than the poor in poorer nations:
