Dan: In the past, you have expresed your disdain for economics and economists as "unscientific" because you consider economic unsuitable for producing predictions. Yet, you have now used economics to produce a prediction - namely that the relationship between government intervention in an economy and economic growth can be described as a curve, and moreover, that the Europeans are at a higher point on the curve than the US. Thus, it seems we have a contradiction from you. So, do you choose to stand by your claim that economics "not a science" or do you wish to stand by your predictions? :) Your choice. :) JDG _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
