exactly, note the flat productivity numbers in Dec recently
I regard this is the last gasp of the economy
use the underutilized equipment a little more
get some more overtime out of workers
then we hit the wall on productivity
we have come to the end of the First Impulse up
now it is time for the Double Dip Recession
with car sector leading the way

this allows for the criminal deception by USGovt in reporting productivity
since when does a new Pentium PC do 5x the work as a 1995 PC ???

official reporters assume greater work
my guess is they attempt to double count the added work
use the multiplier on the sales side
measure the production on the output side

why is this not complained about by the press & media?
