Rhetoric

[edit]

"For start-ups to be able to do this, others (savers) must either currently be saving or must have saved in the past. It is simply not possible to have some people consuming more than they produce without having others who are either currently producing more than they consume or who did so in the past."

This dubious assertion I quote is dripping with assumption and subjective pretence. Nothing is 'simply not possible', and henceforth should not be considered so. In the least, proclaiming such is too controversial for a communal encyclopedia -- Wikipedia.org, for one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xan81 (talkcontribs) 20:27, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Capital goods as a series of commodities and more of an encyclopedic flavor in the article

[edit]

There are alternative views on capital goods and this article is more of a classical/neoclassical interpretation on the topic. In preparing for a class, I read the Palgrave article on it and got a very different flavor. At a minimum, I plan to incorporate the Palgrave material into the article.

Also missing the more mainstream Samuelson material on capital goods. Cheers Risk Engineer (talk) 15:18, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
