Captains of "Industry" Soros, Buffet, Rogers... Nations whose sole strengths were in producing financial products are in dire straits.

The Robber Barons -the real heros that built America- created the wealth. The new Barons just robbed.

There is no alternative than to become poorer. Reverting to natural size where the real wealth will reflect the strengths of those countries.

Profoundly true....with notes....

Some of todays(relatively speaking)Captains of Industry are Jobs, Allen, Gates, Ford...and others.....

not Soros, Rogers, Buffet...they are the new Financial Robber Barons...Yes.

otherwise what you say is Profoundly True......Sadly.

regards

Funny I just commented to someone that maybe we need to bite the bullet and elect a lefty (relative to Canada politics) up here to get infrastructure (fibre, rail, public transit, sewage, pipelines) going... caveat being of course we will over pay (in a different a fashion) .. but with no robber barons to do it.. maybe there is no option..
