I love Sramana’s picture of capitalism, once the domain of entrepreneurs, as now the domain of speculators.  And she’s got a solution:  http://1m1m.sramanamitra.com/ Her goal is to have 1 million entrepreneurs making $1 million in revenue by 2020.  Love the ambition!!!

What do you think that this program costs the entrepreneurs $1000?  Multiply that by 1 million, and Sramana has made a neat billion over the next 10 years.  Is it a small percentage (0.1%) of the trillion dollars of global GDP she hopes to stimulate, or is she repackaging the American dream to a disillusioned generation?
