The Absolute Return Letter
February 2011
Find the Hat

The folks who authored the letter assumed implicitly that continental civilization state china NEEDS oecd customers who cannot even pay their import bills with fiat money inflation euros and dollars (never mind the sort of goodies that africa, Latin American, and such who can pay in food, fuel, and minerals, in effect).

The authors cannot fathom a future where Europe reverts to museum, and america specializes in food.

But we must question, "why not". Is the French fellow pretending to working 20 hours a day for 150 days a year that much more special than the engineer toiling in Shenzhen, and

Is that joe6pack working for ford that much more capable than the wang3cups working for geely?

We shall find out, and that is the fun, finding out.
