Actually worse now, if you consider that the 8.6% is people collecting

I see you're no expert in economics either.

Did your diploma mill offer a two-fer and you got an econ BA when you
bought your poli sci rag?

What it did was teach me to recognize when someone else without any
formal training is trying to foist himself as an expert.


So the only way to learn anything useful is "formal training"?

I'll tell you a secret. "Formal training" isn't where your education
ends, its where it starts. I learned more in my first months on the job
than I had in years of "formal training", and I found that a good
portion of my "formal training" was either useless, wrong or obsolete.


My nose tells me really. When you started in talking about economic
issues my nose told me that something about it stunk, and that
you were presuming to know way more than you really do once again.

If that's what your nose reacts to, I'm surprised you can bear to sit an
a computer and show the world how little you've learned. Nose plugs? A
clothes pin?
