"please elaborate" demand is always there. it's natural for everyone to want everything all the time, at least the things they think they'd like to have. here's what peter schiff says about demand. "Everybody thinks, “Oh no, if the world stops loaning us money and shipping us stuff, the whole economy is going to collapse.” That’s all a bunch of nonsense. People think that economies grow because of demand, that our demand is what’s fueling everything. No. Demand is infinite. Everybody demands. I have a seven-year-old son. He wants everything he sees. Nobody has to stimulate his demand. I want. I want stuff. I want an 800-foot yacht with a helicopter and a submarine. I don’t have one, but it’s not because I don’t want one. When the first plasma television set came out, I remember looking at it at one of these stores and thinking “I really want that.,” But I didn’t buy it. Why didn’t I but it? Because it was $10,000. That’s why I didn’t buy it. But when the price came down, now I’ve got five or six of them in my house. They’re cheap. It was a falling price that enabled, because of increased production. It was production that turned my potential demand into actual demand." so price determines actual demand. the demand will be there even when the price is too high and there are no sales. so it's lower prices that help the economy, not demand. demand is always there. demand is infinite.

DEMOCRATS STILL SAY VOTERS ARE DUMB Missouri's overwhelming rejection of Obamacare made it clear Americans will resist the federal government's power grab, but Democrats aren't getting the message. Despite being a middle-of-the-road swing state, an overwhelming 71 percent of Missourians voted against federal mandates over their personal health care choices. Ignoring the clarity of this protest, top Democrats maintain that the problem lies with American voters, who aren't smart enough to know what's good for them. On Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Nevada Democrat, chimed, "It's very obvious that people have a lack of understanding of our health care reform bill." Facing a revolt in her own home state, Sen. Claire McCaskill, Missouri Democrat, agreed it's largely just a misunderstanding. "I know that there is a lot of work that we need to do on not just the provisions of the law," she said, "but most importantly [to] make sure that everyone knows what is in the law." No matter what the spin, claiming government bureaucrats will make health care more efficient is as absurd as saying FedEx would be better if it were run by the Post Office. It's obvious Democrats deliberately concealed that cost savings they promised never existed. THIS TWO FACED LIAR MUST BE REMOVED ASAP!!! washingtontimes.com GZ
