Wow. He was just making it up as he went along, wasn't he? First he said, "we're not more productive." Then he said, "they're more productive because the jobs are overseas." LOL.

And that was after he red-baited you! well done. I wish i could get myself red-baited like that (although now I know how you did it: tell him you want to expropriate him. I gotta remember that).

He doesn't know any statistics or any history. He knows his own business (it would seem), which is back to Marv's small shopkeeper point, which is exactly what I kept thinking.

The question I have is this -- why was he right? I expect someone to tell me he wasn't, and that would be cool, too, but the truth is I don't know what his schtick was in that book he keeps bragging about, and that Jon Stewart (peace and love be upon him) let him tout on the show.
