Amen to that my friend, perhaps sending these words of wisdom to our Mr Gordon Brown may make him stop and think. Though it may be a waste of time, he's too busy trying to write his own legacy, to be read in memorium.


It's great to be reminded of values born out of heart felt wisdom and feelings for their fellow man.

Thank you for the correction, guess that one is aimed at me. You know you are right to stop the slide of negativity from taking over in discussions.


Perhaps I'm just an average sceptical,traditional Brit,having his eyes opened to the way we exchange views and market our business, however I must say I prefere a subtle message, rather than the "In yer face" approach.


Just expressing a personal preference.

Warren Buffet made a good comment yesterday. He thinks we should have another stimulus. But do a better one this time.


The last one was a 1/2 a tablet of viagra mixed in with a bunch of candy. That is everyone threw in there pork. The end result was little got accomplished, money was wastefully spent, and very few jobs were created. How soon with the Chinese decide to foreclose.

Very mischevious, James but a lot of fun. I swear the governments of the free world are putting something in food, thats addictive to some folk. Now adding Viagra,well we made need that right now if we have to take on the Chinese or North Koreans in a few decades, if not sooner.

yes Stu


Good laugh.


I just hope they get it right this time. Involve business leaders setting up the stimulus. Only let congress vote on it. They have too much pork that they cant make a clear decision for the country. Except Sennsenbrenner. He is good.

And we need more stimulus why? It does not work (clearly). Talk about throwing good-borrowed-from-ou-grandchildren after bad. It is time to cut taxes short term. Cut business a break and small business will bring us out.

 EVEN IF public spending remains constant, we could redistribute the funds differently.  We have taken to enacting legislation which provides funding to issues which have nominal impact on the well-being of society at large, but has some sort of 'moral' feel-good side to it.


There is no need to create a new law every time a child is kidnapped, or a bomb threat is made, or someone in a wheelchair wants access to the rooftop deck at a ball park.  these new laws usually cost a lot to enforce, and often [in their haste to appease the whining activists] have major flaws and loopholes.  we have lived without this newly-proposed legislation for decades ... let's take the time to add rules we really need.

 I made this suggestion a long time ago . Instead of giving all that money to a few companies give each US citizen a percentage I forget the percentage however it gave each us citizen over 500 grand. Tell me how many would have purchased automobiles, homes,clothing,businesses,insurance etc. That would have been a huge boost to the economy.


 I also suggested to cut breaks for small business especially  taxes and insurance costs.The economy has always revolved around  small business that is who will put  the economy back on the right training wheels.


 People that  thought  the stimulus would take affect in less than six months are nuts.It took years to get into this place and it will take years to dig out. It will take longer to get to the place prior to the drop. This all had its start in the 90's with deregulation and spiraled out of control while people were getting rich.

 in the meantime, until things start to turn around, we have to remember one important fact:


NO MATTER HOW BAD THE ECONOMY IS IN GENERAL, THERE IS ENOUGH SPENDING HAPPENING EVERY DAY WITHIN A MILE OF MY HOME TO MAKE ME VERY WEALTHY.
