  Yes for sure and the other side of the argument is "MAYBE NOT"

  Great...now we're getting economic advice from a fool who essentially hopes that "something good" will come down the pike & create robust economic growth. And this passes for sound economic advice?

  "Don't trust the weather man".
  
  "Carry an umbrella in the boot regardless".
  
  "Zero sum models are often wrong".
  
  "Don't trust the predictions and promises of people with a vested interest in the outcome of a complex endeavor".
  
  He sounds just like my great uncle, sweet man, who could make almost anything except money.

  I am also not a big fan of Irwin, however all gloomy pessimists should heed his message because he has history on his side on this one. Also, it is interesting to note that even John Mauldin made a similar statement during an interview when he was discussing that quantitatively we would need to see 9-10% GDP over a series of year in order to bring unemployment back down to around 5%. However, John qualified this statement by saying that he believes unemployment will come down to that level again sooner than most people believe even without the unrealistic 9-10% GDP growth because unforeseen innovations and new industries will develop which will create jobs that we cannot necessarily even conceive of today. He says that is why he is optimistic.

  Hey, since I *might* be getting a raise in the future and *maybe* even win the lottery, I think I'll go buy a car I can't afford and a new TV too!!!

  Well, if we don't get the unforeseeable developments, we'll just eliminate the 9T with inflation.
