Thread Name: BS: Fact, Not Fiction
Subject: RE: BS: Fact, Not Fiction
No point in adding to my comments, the thread would chase its tail, as so many below-the-belt threads do on mudcat. I agree with little in Bobert's economic world, which does not embrace current realities.

One sidebar- Those who have moved their investments into copper, silver, gold and other commodities (large increases in their prices over the past six months) add nothing to job or business creation. Of the $14 trillion held by investors (in commodities or just drawing interest or under the mattress), the corporate 500 (or so) hold just one-seventh of the total. In other words, business cannot grow and hire until investors as a whole move out of commodities and savings and into growth industries.
