Dont call people narrow-minded it takes away credibilty from every
statement you make afterwards

Well I dont think countries that are just now building infastruction
are as insignificant as you make make them sound, and Brazil, China,
Taiwan, India, many African countries and middle eastern countries and
not "smaller" then texas. These are the countries that WILL shape the
future economy of the world.

Why? becuase Im too narrow minded to have my own opinions?

And yes I am getting defensive... dont talk down to people, it does
not make you look more intellegent.
