President’s Control of Economy Declining?
- Share via
I could not help but notice the last sentence in James Flanigan’s “Should We Fear High-Pay Job Shift?” (June 22): “Welcome to the globalization of work.”
You mean just maybe President Bush is not responsible for all the job losses that have occurred since he took office? Could it also be that our current economic conditions are the result of the go-go ‘90s, which had for the most part an economy based on “speculation”?
Or is Mr. Flanigan afraid to admit that presidents no longer control our economy as much as Wall Street, Main Street and the rest of the world do?
