Jacob, John, et al
MHO the President, his cabinet members and all senators and congressmen should read 'The General Theory' It might even help Greenspan understand what we are up against!.

Tax cuts and rebates will not increase capex. It is not lack of finance that is holding down investment but rather the lack of demand. And the trickle down theory must have been written by creationists.

Admittedly Keynes is not easy reading but is important for understanding how the economy works [or doesn't work]
Unfortunately many of our leaders have not gone beyond Adam Smith but we are now in the 21st century and it is time to get out of the 18th
