Fascinating supposition, good analysis, and I totally agree. I hate to use the "m" word, but that's exactly what Marx said would happen. When you actually read him, he's ground breaking IMO, very like Keynes. He's a fan of capitalism to build an economy (ala post wwii Korea, Germany, Japan, etc), but isn't a fan one an economy is built for the very reasons you state. Interesting stuff. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:336061 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
