Nobody has said anything of the sort except for you.
You don't solve economic problems by failing to analyze them and their causes, and doing so is not the same as arguing any other particular course of action should (or should not) have been taken instead.
> who the fuck cares for "investors"?
The people who just ejected yet another government because they don't have jobs.
- coldtea 13y ago>You don't solve economic problems by failing to analyze them and their causes Sure, but you also don't analyse economic problems by stating the obvious (a country after a revolution and an army involvement, in social turmoil is off-putting investors). >The people who just ejected yet another government because they don't have jobs. That was not their reason, neither was "lack of investors". They rebelled for political and social demands, not for jobs. If anything the job situation was better under Mubarak.

Since you're actually agreeing with me, I believe you misread my comment as referring to the original revolution.
