In conjunction with the US being a net saver at the time and policies implemented which limited the Feds ability to debase really puts into context the lasting effects of the Feds mismanagement of the roaring '20's. Now the gloves are off. There is no limited to the amount of debasement that can happen, the manufacturing infrastructure is gone, and the US has not been a bet saver in over a decade.

This is a whole new ballgame. Batters up.

3. The real sad part about the US rail system is that we have lost almost 90% of our laid track, and the infrastructure is just a shell of its former self.
4. We still manufacture in the US? I thought taxes and regulation took care of that sector.
5. At least they are closer, and more in tune with the Asian consumer base.
6. I’m always glad to see antiquated technologies being pushed out of the market. Squeezing every cent out of a product only impedes progress.
7. I’ve never understood why anyone would want to buy a company that never succeeds. The last thing pharmaceuticals cured was small pox.

As for action there are no easy fixes, but a return to community based education would establish a concrete foundation to build upon. I don't have to, but feel compelled to, reassure everyone that are state funded educational system in its current form is inadequate at best. The high school graduation rate is less than 50% (national average), and the children that do cut the mustard still rank far below even 2nd tier nations. I read an article yesterday that stated metro Indianapolis has a 16% graduation rate! Unbelievable. What a waste of $13,000 per child per year. Ignorance is a blindfold for the masses. ]]> Mon, 05 Jan 2009 10:51:01 -0500
