I see he has decided that I'm a leftist, now, one of his many howlers.  He attributes
to others the characteristics that describe him.  The man has no clue, he's
an economic illiterate, knows nothing about accounting or financial
management yet he claims to be
able to correctly analyze the various statistics he finds on the Internet. 
Of course,
everything one reads on the Internet must be absolutely true or it wouldn't be there,
right?
