ParticipantThe animal doesn’t ingest the pepper. The smell irritates hence the deterrent.
Be sure to keep a bunch on hand as you have to reapply after every sprinkler session. Neighbor does this and thinks it works on rabbits as well.
Return to sender is my way. Shovel-ready jobs. (Couldn’t resist!)
BTW, in our hood it seems the kids not adults who forget to clean up.

ParticipantStill related. Each affects the other.
Current policy has been to sell bonds that increase debt which is spend with the intention of reversing the recession trend. Working? 😉
Rather getting bogged down with theories, like to hear your view on how the mood of the country affects economic decisions and growth.
Hobie
ParticipantSure it does. It depends on where the money to spend originates. Private or public sector.
Keyes believes govt spending, ‘primes the pump’ by increasing the money supply. When it doesn’t work that is when hyper inflation begins. As Livincali cites.
If the same spending is by the private sector ie. banks lending or spending savings then you are correct with respect to inflation.
The bigger picture is not so much the academic definitions but it the general ‘mood’ of the country. If folks and business feel confident and secure they spend and take risks. When there is doubt, as there is now, people hang on to their money and business hunkers down until they feel the tide has turned.

The overwhelming number of illegals are not enjoying social benefits, outside of schooling and school lunches. [/quote]take a look at this earlier in the thread:

Do you know about the EIC scam?
Ever wonder why there are so many tax preparers in poor neighborhoods?
Why are these folks so eager to fulfill their civic duty? Ohhhh….I’d also like to see where you got your numbers regarding Mex birth rate. Are you talking about within Mex or the US?
I wouldn’t worry about a reduction in Mex family size here with the generous social programs we have. See discussion on anchor babies.

Participantever see the movie, ” Idiocracy “
Hobie
ParticipantNice accurate summary Cra. But remember that the Reagan amnesty was to, ‘wipe the slate clean’ and to prove that the GOP could reach across the aisle and compromise.
Problem is that the Fed’s never followed up with effective border control and enforcement and the problem resurfaced and ballooned.
I think this perceived giving in by the GOP with no benefit is one of the current contributing factors as to why the GOP is not willing to compromise much these days.
