barnaby33ParticipantWhat I find so interesting is that so many of you say,” the government didn’t cut spending in the good years.” What good years people? The only reason those years were good was govt pulling demand forward by borrowing away our future, thats not good.
If you just ignore the future and pretend like the past was normal, Krugman makes sense. Sure don’t worry about deficits. The future will take care of itself but we need to get aggregate demand back!
If on the other hand you realize that aggregate demand was pumped up over long periods of time this is just a correction to normal. Good times indeed.

Joshbarnaby33ParticipantNope, same as it always was. Silly string and noise makers, as well as a flask of bourbon, can liven things up.

Joshbarnaby33ParticipantDenver is a big city but from everything I know its economy is more boom bust oriented than San Diego. Its also very Arid. The mountains are gorgeous, but are just like the beach. If you don’t take advantage of them, you are living in Kansas next to them (A high dry plane with unpredictable weather).
Colorado Springs is home to angry Jesus (focus on the family), but its got its fair share of open minded folks too. Houses are cheaper, salaries are lower.
Even though my ex swore up and down that the Mexican food was better there, I think she’s full of it.

barnaby33ParticipantThe problem is basically you both make valid points. There is a lot of expensive crappy wine out there. There is also a lot of decent wine that doesn’t cost a lot. What is decent and what is crap is all in the eye of the beholder. Too much emphasis is given on expert ratings. I’ve never read a wine speculator, not even once. I’ve never read Parker either. I’d prefer to figure out what I like on my own.
I’ve found the easiest way to do that is to join a tasting group. Mine meets every Friday at Vintage wines at 5. Its because of this group that I know what I do. Half the fun is disagreeing.
