The capital investment that is needed to move the economy forward is indeed necessary to maintain GNP since capital depreciates. However, I don't think the U.S. is marginally close to full production. I also don't think firms want to invest currently because of lack of demand rather than lack of funds to invest. -- James Conley Indiana University at Bloomington ...iuvax!jec
