 Sure, but its also dependent on the education of
 a population, the higher, more valuble the skillset
 the stronger the economy you can have, you cant
 have prosperity without education, or nobody will
 have the jobs to afford much in the way of goods,
 reasonaly priced or not.

 Dick did have a point about the difficulty in finding
 people you could train.

 Sure it means those of us that exited school before all
 the dumbing down will have the choice slots and
 choice gigs, but they better find a way to keep us
 alive and healthy enough to work, or there wont
 be enough of us to keep the economy running
 thru the brains drought, and then you get total
 collapse.
