Woman's Lipstick success makes fools out of Shark Tank's 'genius capitalists' (VIDEO)

PLEASE READ IT OBJECTIVELY. It is important lest we continue to allow the puppets to continue their games. And spread these thoughts. I will cover on Politics Done Right today.

I hate the Shark Tank show because it is corrosive to business and innovation. It is a complete display of what is wrong with capitalism. A few 'masters' of the game in their 'capitalist wisdom' determines who will likely succeed or fail. That is not how innovation is supposed to work.

We should never allow the few to determine the chosen. Before the democratization created by the Internet, record labels and media companies were the arbiters of the success of many. Many other gatekeepers are there for many other professions.

1. I'm a little more cynical. I think many of the guests

Are there simply for the free publicity.

2. People don't watch Shark Tank hoping for success stories.

They watch to see rich people put poors in their place.

3. ...

It’s just a gameshow with cash prizes. Some contestants win, some don’t. Congrats to those who lose and go on to found a successful business.

4. The show is entertainment, not a documentary

It has nothing to do with reality and is essentially "reality TV". The deal "consummated" are not really - the investors get to dig into the books, etc. after the show and back out (many do). Many who go on the show go because it is essentially a 10 minute ad on prime time TV - worth millions regardless of the outcome.

5. Silly opinion

First, as pointed out previously, this is an entertainment game show. Second, if the objection is that it reflects a message of "rich" people deciding the fate of "poor" people, ask yourself how this differs than visiting a bank or venture capitalist for business funding. Third, many small businesses get started and prosper with out need of this kind of financing.

6. So.......who are you saying should be able to decide what other people will invest their money in?
