GM and Chysler Bankruptcies

[--Pete]

Hi,

Interesting. The usual criticism is that he's too pretentious. But I suppose that's not totally contradictory.

Actually, more complementary than contradictory. If he were the usual inane rock singer, there would be no need to characterize him as 'bubble-gum', that would be a given. It's the fact that he is, in his mind at least, something more that makes the characterization necessary. He's no early Dylan, or even Simon and Garfunkel, though I fancy he fancies himself in that company.

But I can't but help but notice that we still haven't even figured out the last great depression, let alone this one (if that is what this is.)

That's the beauty of history. Much like Tarot and I-Ching, the interpretation is as much a product of the interpreter as of the material interpreted. However, unlike the other two examples, history (or at least some of it) does have a factual basis. But never forget the ancient axiom: if you want to change history, become an historian. :whistling:
