    [quote]So what would you consider to be employee fraud? None of this "I know it when I see it" nonsense, please.[/quote] I guess that's it for that, then. [quote]But why employers and not, say, the government? Or would you really care either way, as long as the injured employee doesn't have to foot any part of the bill (above and beyond

    [quote] Where is the mention of the increase? All I saw was reports of "climate events".[/quote] If you didn't read the page or the "Key trend" columns, I can't help you. [quote] Oh does it?

    While we're on this, I don't mean to advocate QE. It might have been great for the US but it trashed a lot of emerging economies. I was just amused by Schiff's way of dismissing worsening harvest conditions as "oh, droughts happen all the time."

    [quote]a) All those links were included in the SeekingAlpha article? I asked for the part of the article that actually supported your point. (You know, considering you allegedly linked to it to support your statement.)[/quote] The part where it went into how weather was a "huge" factor, in its own words, and listed the various climate events

    [quote]Are you saying they don't? Obviously they affect supply which would usually affect prices...his point is there isn't any reason it should affect them now any more than any other random 5 or 10 year period in modern history.[/quote] Increase in droughts is one reason, as you seem to not want to directly contest.
