[edit] A rising tide lifts all boats

too short to be article or stub? what is an "all" and how does it mean?--Cr0w bar 00:45, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

• Keep a fairly good, clear stub for a widely-used term in United States political discourse. CDC (talk) 00:52, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per cdc. Bad ideas 01:40, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• keep famous phrase that could be expanded. Mikker ^... 02:13, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. As notable a term as "irrational exuberance." --Kinu 02:14, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per above, but are you sure there isn't another term for this. Its possible that this needs to be merged into another economics article but I don't know what off the top of my head. Shortness is not a reason for deletion. Its long enough to establish notability, etc. Merge and Redirect with Keynesian economics. Savidan 02:57, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect with Supply-side economics instead Ruby 03:15, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep'. A redirect to either Keynesian economics or supplyside economics would not the best options as it could be used by either. Capitalistroadster 04:49, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Widely used phrase and concept. (try a Gsearch). —ERcheck @ 05:55, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Per CDC and expand. CVG777 06:01, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Also note the preposterous nomination statement: what is an "all" and how does it mean?, likely bad faith. -- Curps 06:49, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep widely used aphorism. Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] 20:49, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as notable and do not redirect. Did the nom even read the article? Turnstep 16:10, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Keep, considering that the nominator has been banned from wikipedia and that the nomination itself is somewhat incoherent, I'm going to guess that this may have been a bad faith nom. Night Gyr 07:40, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
