Hi Mq

People are being redeployed from useless things [such as building McMansions and frivolous things which many rich people do who don't know what else to do with themselves when suffering Sudden Wealth Syndrome]. They are being re-employed on useful things, such as Tomahawk missile production, CDMA phone production and code writing, True BREW, car repairs instead of scrapping them because they have a full ashtray. Instead of sitting around retired, they are re-employed at reasonable pay rates on developing code for applications which otherwise wouldn't be done. They are redeployed from failed enterprises such as dot.gone to those which have customers and profits.

Hey, no fair. You're talkin' 'bout me! LOL...

[EDIT: although our definitions of "useful" differ]
