HK thinks we should confiscate income above a certain level. With
people like him in power right now, do you really think anybody will
invest in anything, they will not. The economy will not grow as long
as entrepreneurs think they will be punished by people like him.



Invest? You mean, buy stock? You think that is investing?


I'll stick my nose in. I think by "investing" Frogwatch was referring to
the entrepreneurial spirit of creating, building and hopefully succeeding as
a business.

What about bringing in some Mexicans to do that?
Might work.
They do pretty well with food service, construction, lawn care, etc.
Hustlers.
They can bring in some Indians, Chinamen and Ruskies for the
engineering parts.
Good engineers, don't want much pay, and don't whine all the time.
Hell, I ran a crew at the last big business I worked for.
The policy was to toss Iraq vet resumes in the garbage, and hire
foreigners. Fortune 100, doing domestic business only.
If Froggy gets hungry enough they might hire him on too.
You surely don't think America has a lock on entrepreneurs?
