* Trump and Circumstance

CNN reports today that Donald Trump has applied for a trademark on the name "Trump University," indicating that the school would offer university-level sales and marketing, management, entrepreneurship, and real estate courses -- online and offline.

Now, even though Trump did graduate from Wharton, I'm not sure how I feel about this idea. I'm sure he has stories to tell and lessons to teach, but, really, the man lost money running a casino. The patent application is available online.

I think Donald Trump is a very clever business man.

But ethics and moral standards should come into play.

In my opinion casinos are no better than bars that serve alcohol to alcoholics.

Sure they can make lots of money but at what cost to society as a whole.

There are more important things in life than a fast buck at someone elses expence.
