...from post "For those of us who don't see what you see could you tell us what you see we should look to see in order to see if you might be right?" I need some help understanding where this is all going. Personally, i would like to know what I saw here that maybe everybody else saw. And even if they could see what I see, they could probably not see what he saw or she saw. Thanks for your help here. Maybe you didn't see what I saw at all.

T is in position to take the best possible in all telecommunications technology under it wing. It's pe is rational in today's speculative bounces. It has been around for years and as IBM suffered to improve. Country are built on wise corporations one does not build a nation on fly by night dollar. Simply put the mania is in the internet which is the market. The market is the nation and the future is in continued stable growth not fly high and forget fuel and look like the Nikkei

Oh, it will happen, because it is happening. When it has happened then you will say, "why didn't someone say something". This has nothing to do with the subtleties of global finance. There is no such subtlety. Economics is in-your-face trivially obvious, a solved problem of previous centuries. If you have a job as an economist, how do you trick people to pay you? The entire 20th century in economics has been an attempt by economists to justify their compensation. Nothing else. The outcome has been disastrous for everyone. Predictions by economists are an order worse than those of the meteorologist. You are incomparably better off with a coin. Natural law leads to the default circumstance of free markets. One function of free markets is to adjudicate fairness. In this it is supreme. Individuals observe the adjudication and disagree that free markets are fair. So they make them fair by passing laws that prevent the market from doing what it naturally does. The pursuit of fairness by a few creates unfairness for the many, and chaos reigns. The legislated laws eventually fail because they are inconsistent with the fact that free markets are the a priori nature of economic existence, and the chaos causes people to retire the destructive laws. No big deal except for it takes time and squanders generations to undergo this process. People's lives are destroyed because a few university economists need to prove their profession is worthy. Every era has its Captain Dunsell. "Capt. Dunsell? Who the blazes is that?" - Leonard H. McCoy, "The Ultimate Computer". Everyone has a better way and yet, no way is best. The best leaders are those who don't lead. President Clinton may be the greatest President because he didn't get what he wanted. A good leader leads the people to lead themselves and thus does not lead. Very hard if not impossible to find that in this era of pretense to knowledge. We, the people, prefer to be sheep. And we are led to the slaughter. So don't complain when the ax falls, when the bell tolls, they are doing it for your own good and you accept that they know what's best. Somewhere in a far away place children are laughing. They slide down the slide. They swing with swings. They build sand castles in the sand box. They twist on the Monkey Bars and live a full life in their free little world. Then they grow and find out what kind of a hell hole world their caring, thinking, loving parents have created. They can't go back to the sand box, so they have to turn into monsters too. It's only fair.
