So what ya think... copper prices have quadrupled in last 5 years. Seems
like it has out performed oil by far.

We gotta do something about those damn chinese!! ;/

And tin. Gold. Concrete. Rice. Steel. Wheat. As a couple of billion
more people want to be middle-class, things get strained.

If they'd just get the government out of the way, and let the Free
Market operate naturally, everyone will get richer. The problem is
way, way, way too much government regulation, taxes, etc, etc, etc...

Government _ALWAYS_ makes things worse.

Thanks,
Rich

You and the libertarians have all the answers, eh?

So do you think Standard Oil should have been broken
up? Or do you think monopolies are good for the consumer?

Do you think gangs and mafia groups should be allowed
to fester and grow unimpeded, because of insufficient law
enforcement?

"gangs and mafia groups" = = government

VERY TRUE.
