Yep, the commodity price of fresh fertilizer dropped again due to excess
production and supply in a market where demand remains low.

According to The Economic Report of the President available for download
at: http://www.gpoaccess.gov/eop/download.html
some jobs that had been classified as "Service Sector" jobs have now been
reclassified as "Manufacturing Sector Jobs." The official definition of
manufactured goods is, "the mechanical, physical or chemical transformation
of materials into new products." The report says that since heating ground
beef produces a chemical change the production of a Big Mac, Whooper or
FatBurger is a manufacturing job not a service job. In fact the assembly of
any sandwiches is no different than the assembly of circuit boards. After
all both processes start off with a pile of raw materials that are assembled
into a finished product.
So next time you look for a job as an IT professional do not sell yourself
short. You assembled the code, changed the disc structure and produced
reports. You are a manufacturer. Say it with pride, "I manufacture
information." It'll bring tears to your eyes; I know it brings'em to mine.
I am so glad that all of those Know-it-Alls were wrong about losing
manufacturing jobs overseas. Who said people in the manufacturing sector had
to wear hard hats and not paper hats? It sorta makes ya proud to have lived
to see it, don't it!
Pray for Peace,
Yosef
