Second, there was enough information proffered by VK about the article to give me a good synopsis of what the subject was about, and after reading the complete article I was proved correct in what I expected was the erroneous and partisan conclusion of Mr. Reich.
I don't know what your thinking is on about where the "growth" is taking place. Growth can happen anywhere. It can and will happen here if the Federal Government would get out of the way of business. Because "I" have money doesn't mean there is less for "you". That's just plain ridiculous.

So you are right and Robert Reich a professor of economics at Brandeis, Harvard and UCLA is wrong. You've got to be kidding.
This growth that I am talking about is taking place in China, India, Malaysia, and other Asian nations at the expense of the American middle class. There is a finite amount of demand for goods and services and those are decreasingly being provided by Americans. It's not government regulation, it's the fact that Indians will work for a fifth of what Americans will work for.
You want to solve complex economic problems with FOX News bytes. That just doesn't cut it.
I got you angry. I have your attention. Give me solid economic reasons why I should accept your arguments as realistic.
