    So Apple alone represents 1.5% of the pretax profits for 2011?

    I think it's pretty well geared for non warfare based economy.

    Likewise Google and Microsoft and Cisco and HP and Dell... Essentially the juggernauts of the information age are US controlled companies. So what if the assembly lines are offshore, look where the quality control, decisions, benefits and cash flow to.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    Agreed. In fact, he's completely wrong. America has always done well under a peace time economy and traditionally been horrible during wartime.

    A simple understanding of American history would reveal this.


    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.
