this is directly an example of what I am dealing with personally as your
attacks indicate, but observations of what is going on around here.



Never meant to imply that I thought it was something you were dealing with.
If I did so that was an accident. My point, which I didn't make well
apparently, is that it isn't going to do the people you talk about any good
to try to control wages and prices and force the economy. It's got to
correct itself and people have got to take what steps they need to so they
can continue to be productively employed. Well meaning people who try to
control national and international economics cannot change it.

Dee, Capitalism is the best darn economic system to ever hit the earth.
Period. And supply and demand is a better bet than anyone's deity being
the real one.

But, our country's economy is not really what I think you think it is.
Unbridled capitalism tends toward major boom and bust cycles, and can
produce some particulary nasty characters, as the running motive behind
it at times alllows one small group or person to grab all the cookies so
to speak. Capitalism turns a basic human characteristic, greed, into a
pretty good thing. But all by itself, greed turns into something else
than what we might want.

Our economic system has plenty of controls on it to help avoid the
greediest to own it all. And it works pretty darn well IMO.


And yes if you are willing to move, there are sufficient jobs for people.
But vast numbers of people won't do that.

Are you saying that if all the unemployed moved someplace they would
all get jobs? Sounds oversimplified to me.
