So, by logical extension then you'd argue that an auto mechanic who uses
crescent wrenches is usually more competent at his job than one who eschews
the crescent wrench for a high-quality set of wrenches. The more I hear
about your "New Economy" as you describe it, the more convinced I become
that it bears more resemblance to a religious sect than it does to a real
economy. Maybe you should change its name. How about Dianetics II.
