Ubiquitous Seriously you make me laugh. I couldnt help letting out a smile as I read your posting ubiqitous. I didnt expect that from an Economics graduate, but I am guessing you are one of those confused economists who profess to know every bit of econ without actually knowing their stuff. I have come across plenty of ppl like you, so you neednt worry about being the only one in that situation. Now that I have lambasted you enough for your posting, I guess I am obliged to answer your statements as well. If you did study Economics as you say you did, you should've been wise enough not to mix Economics with Politics, since this impairs one's ability to make unbiased conlusions. Your hate for Bush seems to have fuelled much of your economic sense, and I reckon tha's whatt led you into making those comments. If you do want to prove your point, just give me some reasons as to why Bush is to blame for whatever's happened to the US economy after Bush started office. Well, I know there's much more to the downturn than that cycle I mentioned in my earlier posting, but I dont see how Bush was to blame for any of the causes that actually led to the downturn. I would have thought of you highly if you had used reasonso in crtisizing my comments ubiquitous, rather than just using your Economics degree to that end.
