But better hurry, as once those above get control them books being used today, they will be burned and replaced with a new and better education to make sure no one bashes Big Brother. THE INTERNATIONAL FORECASTER Bob Chapman 23, March 2002 (#3) From: LePatron@LeMetropoleCafe.com To: dougak@aka.com Le Metropole Members, Bob Chapman has served excerpts from... at The Toulouse-Lautrec Table "Warren Buffet, in his yearly letter to Berkshire Hathaway shareholders, said the war against terrorism can never be won. He was really upset as profits for last year were cut... and his stock portfolio fell from... as some of Americas biggest companies shares fell in value. He called once again... blasted executives for taking millions of dollars out of businesses, even as they fare badly, a practice he said went far beyond Enron. He attacked the shabby ethics of many businesses in the US and the tragedy of the tech bubble. He is disgusted by the situation so common in the last few years, in which shareholders have suffered billions in losses while CEO's, promoters and other higher-ups who fathered these disasters, have walked away with extraordinary wealth. Many of these people were urging investors to buy shares while concurrently dumping their own, sometimes using methods that hid their actions. Thus is the state of American business and government today." It was most fun meeting Bob last week in Phoenix. Never a dull moment when he is around.
