There is a store, where the owner of the building wanted to tear it down and build a much bigger, grandeur and up to date place for business. It would be a grand building with all the latest technology and be the jewel of architectural engineering. There was a sole problem. The man who rented from him refused to move. He would be out of business, even if the landlord vowed to honour the man’s lease in his new building. It would take three years to rebuild. What would the small renter do for commerce in those years? He would go broke. His business would certainly find other people and other places to shop. He would have to restart all over and worse, have to rebuild all his business and clients from scratch. Now reasonable people could find some sort of compromise. If that did not work, then they could get lawyers and take the matter to court but that would cost and it would take a long time, perhaps even longer than the three years to build the new building. Or they could find a third way. Hired some punks to smash the window, toss in some gasoline and try to burn out the small business owner. While I suspect that the latter is not taught at the Molson School of Business, it did seem to do the trick. The small business owner shut his store and took the cash from the insurance. The Building owner, and now criminal, is free to build the very building he wants. Sadly, the police know who ordered this hit, and why. They have not been able to find out who did the actual nasty deed and flip them on the owner. How stupid do we have to be in order to add two plus two and comes to some other number aside from the expected result of “Go to jail and do not pass Go”.
