Well, here is an example of something useful coming over this list. I have already included in my "learnings on Citizen's Income" page, to be found at http://www.learnings.citizensincome.ca/
But to repeat, I am not interested in discussing much on CIBI/ GAI unless I get it clear that poor bashing is not tolerated on this list. There is no "moral obligation" to "work". Free people work when it benefits them to work. Slaves work because they are made obligated to. tr On 25-Jul-09, at 12:33 PM, Mike Spencer wrote: > >> ...things you need if you're going to have a real economic recovery. >> Unfortunately for CAT, these things aren't selling. > > In my rural/small-town area, the only heavy equipment business, > selling and maintaining dozers, cranes, backhoes, timberjacks and the > like for over two generations, went out of business a couple of years > ago.
