Or at least, I&#8217;ve said what I have to say for now. There are the economics effects of course, but other than some general observations, I&#8217;m not an economist. And Beliefnet doesn&#8217;t want me to stray too far into politics. I&#8217;m good with that, though. We get more than enough of that sort of thing elsewhere.
