200. He's plum wrong on that. This economic collapse is already showing which are the stronger countries.

And the US and the UK don't figure among them. The ones that are, are social-democrats and socialists.

It's not rocket science, so he needs a reality check. Could our hot-shots of the business world be trusted to invest in the social and material infrastructure of our countries. Of course, not. Their shareholders are driven by the same blind, insatiable greed Adam Smith was so withering about, when he remarked: "All for ourselves, and nothing for other people, seems, in every age of the world, to have been the vile maxim of the masters of mankind."
