productivity is the great scam lead story
the principal beneficiary has been and will continue to be consumers, from reduced prices
the productivity benefit fell all the way thru the chain to the end consumer
because almost all participant competitors enjoyed the shared benefit advantage tools
unless it is horded by a key player, like MSFT, the benny goes all the way down the chain

I agree, it wont help hiring or job security
it wont help profits
Asia and China continue to undermine on prices
the biggest surprise will be the rise of Chinese Yuan currency in the next few years
that means Chinese stocks will shine shine shine

Greenspasm continues to wave the productivity flag
but remember my hottub conversation with MrH last month
MrH used to work in the Cleveland Fed where the quant jockeys live
he claims GreenMan has no clue on anything related to productivity
so GreenScrotumLess continues to beat a dead horse
he justifies high stock valuations from productivity
THAT MAKES NO LOGICAL SENSE, he is clueless
right now, rising productivity indicates extreeeeeme capacity underutilization coupled with nonexistent pricing power
somebody needs to send GreenSmack to school
