ParticipantChina threatened to cut off rare earth elements essential to modern industry so Japan let the captain go. If China threatened us in the same way we would also capitulate. We don’t mine these materials here. Rich deposits are believed to be in Afghanistan but if Iraq is any guide we will fall over backwards to avoid criticism and do nothing to ensure we recoup our losses there or secure rights to these materials.

ParticipantWhen a party that chooses poorly is bailed out — whether or not it makes economic sense — poor decisions are encouraged in the future as the party gets to unilaterally enjoy any gains, but escape losses — which ends up not making economic sense in the long run.
I didn’t get to gain when people took cash out on the bubble, I shouldn’t have to pay to cover their losses. Period. IMO.

August 23, 2010 at 11:58 AM in reply to: Shiller: US could likely to fall into deflationary spiral ala Japan #594931ParticipantWe are growing our population with immigrants. This won’t work because to work they would have to contribute as much to the economy, consumer spending, and taxes, as the native population. This is not the case, however, as we are expanding with zero to low skill third worlders who don’t speak English and are a net drain on the system, not a contribution.
My wife, my in-laws, and even my own mother are naturalized citizens, however. But, contrary to the view of mainstream politics and media, they have no desire to turn the US into the places they left. Moreover, they have contributed to the system, not taxed it further.
Of course reading my first paragraph only, many, if not most, people will just cry racism and that’s as far as we’ll get in the conversation. Whether or not what I said is true will never be discussed, or will be quickly dismissed based on false facts or false assumptions.
