MB - (...They did the same thing with GDP, which is why it is GDP and not GNP any more. They want to do the same thing with the savings rates and the productivity numbers and the trade deficits, as those pesky numbers aren't behaving either...) According to recently released statistics from the Clinton Administration, Americans have reduced their real rate of age increase to almost zero due to the family friendly policies of the Administration and increased tobacco taxes. Furthermore, this trend is likely to be further advanced by the President's plan to use part of the unified budget surplus to put 100,000 more mechanics on the streets to search out the partisan enemies of Clintonian Democracy. Universal insurance against old age will soon be available to all at affordable rates. Regards, Don
