every single scientific "law" might be overturned at any time by some new discovery that displays reality from a new and different point of view
You're confusing laws and theories. Laws describe what things do, with no concern for how that is accomplished. For example, Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation: F = G(m1*m2/r^2)
This accurately describes what the gravitational force is between two masses, but you're not going to see anything about gravity waves or gravitons or gravity elves in there - there's no "how". For this to be overturned, you'd have to contradict all of mankind's collected observational data on the subject, where everything we've ever observed has turned out to be affected by gravity according to that formula.
Theories are our attempts to explain the "how" - and are subject to correction, reinterpretation, and refinement constantly.
his job at Bain was to save companies, not jobs
Tell that to the folks that used to work for Kay Bee toys. http://www.politifact.com/trut... While he had left by the time Bain did their damage there, they were using the system that he had set up: Run up a large debt to purchase a company, assign the debt to that company, sell off much of its assets, and watch it burn.
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
