Does organic food turn people into jerks?
Fri May 18, 2012

- That may be, Wakehead, but would you not like to pay less interest towards that asset? Fact is, the economy downturn is temporary, longer than desired, but it will not last forever. This type of asset should not be turned over every few years for a profit, it is a longterm investment.
