Ron: Gosh, what can I say? Thanks so much for the remedial economics lesson LOL -- although I heard you say was "we are the Untied States and everybody else sucks". If the US economy is so strong, how come we need to borrow an additional $400 billion a year to keep our party, I mean economy, going? BTW, did you know that the US even has a trade deficit in high tech? I am not in love with European entitlements, or with the economic or political institutions in Asia -- I spend a fair amount of time there and have few illusions. But to think that a debtor nation like the United States can thumb its nose at the rest of the world -- while refusing to save enough money to cover its own credit needs? I don't think so -- best of luck Ron. But on the economics thing -- don't quit your day job <g>
