Vinter,

Reading is only part of what forms my data base. 40 years of working for for profit corporations is the primary basis of my philosophy. The key words in this statement is - for profit. Obama to my knowledge has never worked in a for profit enterprise. To my knowledge he has never been responsible for a P&L. I wonder how many of my opponents here have done that.

Academics are sheltered from the real world. Government employees are sheltered from the real world.

The for profit industries provide the funding for the others. Their reward is being vilified.

When the pain of this recession hits the sheltered groups we may become serious about change.

Bob
