1 & 2. borrowing is down for all types - savings rates are UP
- so are saying they have not changed enuff, or what??
3. examples?
4. "social engineering" has always been engaged in -- e.g. the US Govt. gave enormous grants to RR's -- to get the transcontinental RR built - it worked. was it worth it??
another e.g - the entire robber baron era was built on a govt'l substructure
then there's the space program...
so, you need to be more specific about your objections
