In the face of another half million American families losing their
homes, the creation of mostly "McJob" jobs, a few million more Americans
without health insurance, slumping retail sales, and a few more cuts in
the prime rate that have no impact?

Are you pimping for a job in the remains of the Bush Administration? :}

Let's see, if we have a million new jobs, and supervisors are needed for
every ten, then we've also promoted 100,000 to supervisor positions, along
with 10,000 to supervise them, and another 1000 to supervise them. Sounds
like we're doing pretty well, Harry.

Of course, that doesn't fit your agenda. So why not just shut up?

It was Billary during the election that said "we don't care if they
are making potato chips, we will put Americans to work and give them
jobs". That's when folks really started getting paid for doing
nothing.. Leading to a paper economy in the late 90's.

No, no... He is an idiot. But you deflect from the fact that Billary
used that rhetoric in an election year, what about that??

I'm interested in what the candidates are saying and doing now, as
opposed to some sound bite from what, 15 years ago?

Weren't you bitching about the stringent mortgage lending rules and
American families not being able to cash in on the housing appreciation
boom? If you can't afford to buy it then leave it on the shelf.

Last year my former company (now my oldest son's) had a tough year with a
major slowdown in new order activity and, in some cases, cancellation or
postponement of planned orders by several customers. The situation was not
unique to the company as many others involved in similar, high cost capital

This has all changed. In the past 30 days the company has received over $6M
in new contracts and the quoting activity for more has picked up
substantially. If this continues, and past history says it will, 2008 will
be a very busy year. I'll betcha that by May or June all the talk will be
about how robust the US economy is.

Obviously Harry had a rough night last night and isn't out of bed yet to
give your comments their due. All the new jobs are for bed-makers or
fry-cooks, and the only folks doing well are the selfish CEO's at the top.

That's his story, and he's sticking to it!

It is good to get Eisboch information. At one time I was in an industry
that was nearly 180 degrees out of step with the economy. When we were
going up the economy was going down and visa versa

It helps explain the streets in our neighborhood that were lined with
the remains of a "poor" christmas on last Fridays trash pick up.

As with the talking heads in the media, some people confuse economics
with political rhetoric.

Well, Brian Williams seems to spend much more time on his 'subtle'
political rhetoric than he does on actual news.

Just talk, not reality. Until we do something to correct this:
http://kitco.com/LFgif/au3650nyb.gif
our situation will keep getting worse and worse. This chart is the
reason prices and costs are rising at such an alarming rate. Whether
anyone likes it or not, the price of gold is the measuring stick for the
value of currency for the last 10,000 years. It cannot continue to rise
at the rate, last year, of about 33%/year. If your orders didn't
increase over 33%, you lost your ass. If the value of your property
didn't rise over 33%, you lost your ass. If you didn't get over 33%
return on your investments, you lost your ass.

Oil companies are not responsible for the $3/gallon gas. The Federal
Reserve Banknote Corporation and its elite owners are the cause of it
all....printing money as fast as they can with nothing to back it up to
loan it to the US Government, at interest, to fund these stupid wars the
bankers created in the first place.

Look again at that balance sheet. Is it 33% more than last year so you
can just break even?

At some point the Sheeple will be squeezed to the point of breaking.
Hope I'm dead by that time so I don't have to witness the murders.
