"people would be foolish not to look around the globe to see what is working" China is working, we're standing around the water cooler trying to decide if we should send the money we couldn't afford to spend on food stamps for kids to Ukraine (for food for kids?).

Bread; I couldn't be in more agreement with you. I do admire many aspects of Norway's culture - but short of moving there, I'm not going to ever live under the culture of Norway. ..........But having said that, we as a people would be foolish not to look around the globe to see what is working and what is a broken system of economics. Steve, you are absolutely right if America was an objective sociological laboratory. Of course that's the problem--we're not such an animal.
