"It is no crime to be ignorant
of economics, which is, after all, a specialized discipline and one that
most people consider to be a 'dismal science.' But it is totally
irresponsible to have a loud and vociferous opinion on economic subjects
while remaining in this state of ignorance." -- Murray
N. Rothbard

ignorance." - Goethe

Losses and Trade: Reality Check
“Americans are fed a steady diet of idiotic commentary
and specious 'analyses' most of which flow smoothly down the gullets of
unsuspecting nightly-news, viewers, newspaper readers, and National Public
Radio devotees. But for those of us vexed with some comprehension of supply
and demand, comparative advantage, the role of prices, the nature of money,
and other economic insights, most of what is uttered or written by the
news media on economic topics is so ignorant that it hurts to hear it.”

"Official statistics published last March
in the
Survey of Current Business showed an increase of 2.8 million
jobs outsourced by American-owned multinational corporations during a quarter
of a century ending in 2001. Over that same span of time, there was an
increase of 4.7 million jobs outsourced to
Americans by foreign-owned multinational corporations [and you won't find
anything in the 'major' media on it]." -- Thomas
Sowell
"Although the U.S. has lost
some service jobs to India, total exports from U.S. companies to India
have grown from $2.5 billion in 1990 to $4.1 billion in 2002. What goes
around comes around, and also benefits Americans."--

"You know, I'm actually starting to feel bad about

"As
one can plainly see from the following chart, unlike the data depicted
by the Establishment Survey, the Household Survey shows an increase of
2.5 million jobs since Mr. Bush took office, and a 4.5 million rise from
the January 2002 recession low." -- from Tech Central Station,HERE
MONTHLY JOB GAINS according to the HOUSEHOLD SURVEY:
"An
economy hampered by restrictive tax rates will never produce enough revenues
to balance our budget -- just as it will never produce enough jobs
