If American business really believed in growth, they would be more likely to set aside short term growth and profits for long term viability and profits. Unfortunately the design of our system, while very good, can lead to short sighted thinking. A LOT of businesses pursue current year profits at the expense of future growth. We see it all the time.

Too true. And actually, it's usually not even current year. It's current quarter.
