Yes, I’ve been banned as of late last night from QnA. 2nd time. Screw ‘em! I don’t think I’ll go back.

Banned, why? Who knows. They are too weak to tell you. Perhaps because I corrected Ron. He left a rather smart-assed note when i came back last time. Or perhaps its just my anti-republican posts. I’ve proved in the past in the cafe that they are politically biased showing actual posts kept and deleted.

The place smells though of Microsoftitis. It’s over managed and inconsistent in its management. They treat users like children and take themselves and their rules too seriously. They could learn from other sites.

So, anyway, now you know. If you want to get in touch you can do it here, privately or publicly.

The financial analysts and sellers of stocks and bonds all chant that the problem in the US is a lack of confidence. I say that a lack of confidence is a symptom of the problem and not the problem itself.

People have lost confidence in the economy because they can't see what it is grounded in. They have seen that the tech economy never fully emerged. The Intellectual Property economy never emerged. The Sales economy failed. And they've seen us give away the manufacturing economy with little to no fight.

Now they see pillars of the economy fall, housing and financial institutions.

What's left? How does one be confident when tomorrow they may lose their job, their house, their health insurance, and all the things that hold a family and a people together.

How does one have confidence when even your dreams have failed you?
