Trump's rejection of free economy principles undermines economic advantages, global production and supply chains, and trade. This will lead to inflation for Americans, a weakened fiscal balance, diminished soft power, and slower global economic growth.

The recent elections resulted in significant losses for the Democrats, including the presidential seat and key decision-making positions across the country. Many people attribute these outcomes to the policies and leadership strategies of the Obama and Biden administrations.

Attempting to plan and succeed in countries with significant government intervention is futile, like trying to build on an earthquake-prone land.

My grandfather, who brought me up, was a great entrepreneur. I visited the company with him. I remember it vividly. It was admirable. I'm glad I did go into the family business.

My father and grandfather were great businessmen. The family business was cotton exporting from Iran and India to England. When the first world war came in the early 1914s, our business developed. We turned the threat into an opportunity. Isn't this success?

I grew up in a family business... that really has provided the core of my belief in Persian small business, and in Iran's ability to grow and operate important businesses that can compete and be successful.
