Life is about choices Carl. Either you adapt to the world or you adapt the world to you.
Now, if you really strain your brain, you might make the leap that the issues of inflation/deflation are also about adjusting expectations on the road to just the right equilibrium state. "employed" and a balanced monetary policy are more rare than the opposite conditions that you seem to deny.
No, what is "ignorant" is you wanting to personally attack me me over this, especially when all you've done is rephrase what I said and repeated it.
Yep, life is about choices and I guess you've decided to become that annoying little yapping chihuahua, steadily barking at me while backing up. I guess you figure if you use more words to express the same thing and add totally unrelated crap to it, you'll come off as being more impressive. Well tell me something, who do you believe you're impressing?
This ain't GIM Carl. I have attacked your position as ignorant, not you personally. Do I know you personally? No. Do I address your avitar 'personally'? Yes, when you post I address you straightup, I don't worship your claptrap, I challenge it and I do it openly; I don't hide behind anonomous 'karma/smite' tallies. Furthermore, as we start fresh, for the few that dare come to the sub-forum that is meat of a 'gold-silver' site, what folks are going to see quickly is that the Carl avitar is a mouthy and clever technician but once anyone punches through the thick shell, there isn't much left.
I love it when you start out a post claiming to be wounded by a purported personal attack as justification to lauch your own invictive. As long time GIM readers know, I could care less about your cute attack logic. It sells good copy though, and it makes it easy for me because I leverage your colorful commentary with an undeterred focus on the fundamentals.
I don't post to get your approval Carl, next time you see your avitar, tell it to get over itself. This is a public forum, I have no idea who I am impressing. If I wanted to annoy you, if I worshipped you, I would sent you a private PM, seeking either validation or offerring you a chance for redemption where you could privately agree with me without shame. Instead, I post my positions here where all can challenge all, not just you and I challenging each other.
"Backing up"? I don't backup.. that is why I lost all my GIM archives... ;D

Hey Carl, I'm underemployed right now. I'm a blue collar guy, as long as I get 20 hours a week, I can easily pay my way.
This is our slow time, I'm grateful to get that 20 hours a week.
I'd like more hours, but it's not my choice. Just so you know...there's folks honestly willing to work more, but it's not an option.
