The waiting list for a new Rolls-Royce is now five years and there is a shortage of crew members for superyachts. Worldwide, 688 yachts measuring more than 80ft were launched and there will be 250 more this year.
I'm getting lost in the mix of metaphors and reality there: is this trickle down, or the rising tide that lifts all boats? In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
While they SAY a "rising tide lifts all boats" (an economic principle that actually works BTW) what they actually practice is an impossible concept "a rising yacht lifts all tides" that, of course, has never worked because it violates all known laws of physics." "Remember the I35W bridge--who needs terrorists when there are Republicans"
I suppose though that in a small enough harbor, a sinking yacht could raise all boats.
Eureka? And I'll give my consent to any government that does not deny a man a living wage-Billy Bragg
