Marc Faber, speaking at John Mauldin‘s Strategic Investment Conference this year:
When capital costs are zero or extremely low, it may be a disincentive to hiring people. If I can borrow without cost, I will buy robots rather than hiring people. I will then not have a headache with social security, I can hire and fire without any problem, and I don’t have to deal with medical insurance for everyone.
