While it seems pretty obvious that inflation and unemployment are important factors in well-being, it seems bizarre to weight them equally. I find it hard to believe that, say, 15% unemployment with 1% inflation is just as bad as 6% unemployment with 10% inflation.

I have heard experts say we are going into a deflation. I can't seem to get my head around that. In simple terms can anyone explain to me what that will mean?
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Listening to those who are constantly trying to "pull levers and push buttons" to adjust the economy is like listening to the circles within circles of an Earth centric universe.
Constantly having to make never ending adjustments, each perpetuating more adjustments simply because they refuse to abandon initial assumptions.

Are you making naughty innuendo's or are you innocent of the talents of the great Kate?

I kinda like "running up that hill" but Kate Bush is a little too spooky for my taste.

It is possible that it was both. I certainly am innocent of her talents.

Come on cut and paste some great libe web page gibberish for us this should be fun. Some great class warfare is about due in this thread isn't it? Like I said rich is anyone who makes more than you do. This thread has been patheticaly predictable. The libs show how even Carter was a great job creater, and how ol RR was just a pathetic dupe. Man you guys are not even fun to read any more. The RR/Bush fans stick to the same story line as well. At this point we should all just number our opinions, that way when we want to put one in we can just put donwn something like 22 and we all know what we mean, that way it saves time on reading. Redshirt can put down say 11 for his class warfare point, and so forth.
