The "haves" have been pissing all over the "have nots" for a very long time

That's why the "have nots" are known as peons.

One thing I wanted to ask you inasmuch as you have studied Keynes. An article in this weeks Newsweek said that according to Keynes theories, stagflation was sort of impossible. Although we know it happened in the late 1970's.

Do You have any thoughts about this?

>>
I have been saying that since the 1980s.
Reagonomics = "Trickle down economics." which I call "Tinkle down economics."
The "haves" have been pissing all over the "have nots" for a very long time - well actually forever. But Reagan and the neocons which he spawned have perfected the art by getting the have nots to say thank you while they are being pissed upon. >>

That is the thesis of the Tom De Frank's? book: "What is Wrong with Kansas". As I am sure you know.
