And you are right. When in desperation, the Craptocrats contradict themselves, this should be seen as an exposed jugular vein. Jérôme had a great one the other day about how 'we need to have wage flexibility (ie downwards) in order to achieve better wages. Or something to that effect.

Absolutely. this is their jugular. And Jerome was brilliant. i could not agree more. Perfect metaphor.

You can convince people in the fence adn very close to the fence. Internal coherence (lack of it) is the achilles heel. I hope people on the reality-based community use it.
