Yeah this family was weird. I did not understand what the brothers were trying to accomplish. I was pretty impressed by Juan Yarur, the father, and his entrepreneurship skills . I remember in the book that his opponents even called him "the best business strategist that I have ever seen." I agree with you that when Jorge took over it was quite comical. Looks like his father did not have too good of a relationship with that son. He took his father's success and as you said, threw it out the window for his own style of business, where production and cost were everything. The Taylor System was also interesting and good for money, but a worker's worst nightmare. I also am kind of curious as to how the brothers got such different views, and although Amador was like his father, as you said, still lacked the charisma and ability to make connections like his father. These are good thoughts and I feel the same way you do. Kind of a comical situation and family.
