It's just like it always was, and apparently always will be.

I totally agree with you, even if I don't have knowledge of economic histories.

Now if we can just people like my relatives to actually see that this is the case, then we'll be getting somewhere. But that isn't going to happen. At least with my aunt and cousin, whom I've been incontact with recently, and working on. Nope. Golf at Donald Trump's course every day. View of Hollywood in the hills. Blind idiots who drank the coolaid.
