I love how now, only after we have been knocked off of our economic pedestal, are people beginning to accept the value of interventionism and regulation.<BR/><BR/>MichaelMichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10600330176051675277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524638947266037981.post-8857477833486722482008-02-07T00:51:00.000-05:002008-02-07T00:51:00.000-05:00Whoa, excellent work.

However, it seems to me that the unrestrained "free market" policies & corporatism of the last 25 years have succeded in undermining the economic infrastructure of our nation.<BR/><BR/>The company I work for (a family business) provides a typical example:<BR/><BR/>Our chief product for the last 50 years has been "American Meter" gas meter bodies.<BR/> <BR/>Several years back, American Meter was purchased by a group of European investors (!).<BR/><BR/>Of course, being the global "free marketeers" that they are, the Europeans went sniffing around for a lowest bidder... in China, of course.<BR/><BR/>Now our company is fighting a losing battle against the Chinese... company possibly doomed.<BR/><BR/>So I don't worship any gods, and I sure don't worship what passes for a "free market" nowadays.Sponyakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14083675593762590420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524638947266037981.post-79002601878815827032008-02-06T09:37:00.000-05:002008-02-06T09:37:00.000-05:00Wow, this is fascinating.
