hello cb, congratulations on your new president!
he will prove to be a wastrel, an eloquent wastrel, but a wastrel.
he will oversee printing, borrowing, taxing, and spending, by all the wrong ways and on all the wrong things, except perhaps solar.
he will preside over the destruction of the economic majority, by enlarging and making poorer the majority, and allowing a minority to do well, as usual, and he will get away with it for awhile, by lying.
he will not be able to exit wars. he may even get you into new wars.
he will not be able to cleanse the system. he is still and will remain part of the system.
he will not be tested. he will show up at the exam, and will read a book at best, fake the test at worst, or just be eloquently ignorant.
the next 8 years ought to be as much fun as the last 8.
i figure capital control will be featured in some guise
govt taking by taking, also
a reminder of precsient times past Message 16079319
(dated july 15, 2001, so few weeks before 911)
... All must work toward security for their own population. Meantime, the folks who want to put a dent in the Empire State Building will do as they were going to do, without any change in script.
... Bush’s winning of the Florida election and his subsequent gift to the world is simply a Texan who does not care what the world wants, but knows what is good for the world.
... I am an optimist, after all, even if I do cower in the dark corner, scoped rifle at ready, guarding my platinum and gold:0)
and this from you Message 16348808 "3. China is a Communist dictatorship where the money goes to the state rather than the private sector" ... precious
time to hunker again, maybe, like before Message 16362728
do not believe I am underestimating the potential of what is coming at us, and I in fact have to start thinking about dormancy procedures for my own business. If there is no business, there is no point to keep my office infrastructure and cost going. I am only starting to think, not act, because we still have business, old business.
