The post below is a guest contribution by friend Paul Kedrosky, writer of the Infectious Greed blog.

“Does the Obama Administration have less business experience? According to some semi-whimsical (I think) research in a new JP Morgan report that would seem to be the case. The author looked at private sector experience of 432 Cabinet secretaries whose activities touch most on the private sector across all presidential administrations since 1900. Here is the result.

“There are obviously many, many issues here, not least of which is that the author isn’t entirely clear on what the y-axis percentage means, how different kinds of experience are weighted, etc. Nevertheless, it’s still thought-provoking.”
