<<The only thing that can cause a global recession is mismanagement and corruption by governments. >> <I look at societies in Africa, where they could be fully employed for a twenty or fifty years to improve their life. The same story applies in various ways to the rest of the world. There are only a few islands of social order among the earth's population. Only in the US and Europe is it possible to have classic recessions or depressions. In the sense of factory owners producing too many goods and laying off workers until inventory is sold off. The rest of the world is in dire need of every sort of practical things. The disorder permeating their society prevents them from making the investment that would provide it. There are real needs in the world, and they go beyond rolling the dice hit the next dotcom. > seems to me there's a disconnect between your first post and your second. seems to me even the most coercive governments can only impact or influence, not dictate, social order. seems to me the economies you cite as being in dire straits might be so no matter how noble their governments. climatic change, population growth, aids, etc. can prove to be problems that overwhelm even the best of governments.....
