[Deja Q]

We went from manufacturing to service and told service was the 'in' thing.

Well, service is going to the same places manufacturing is these days -- and if you check up or even stumble on what those people pay in their countries, you'll get quite mad. (33 cents per liter of gas in China - equates to 70 cents per gallon. Doesn't sound a bad deal to me... but I digress.)

So, what's left once the service jobs, which we were told were the future and how needs would never cease or decline? What do you see that people in our country need? That isn't retail?

Military.

That's the new economy.

Fighting for the people robbing you. Isn't that sweet of them?
