Talk:Physical capital

possible to over-invest?
This is a question for an Economics assignment I have coming up.

Is it impossible for a country to over-invest in physical capital?

Addendum Suggestion
I was looking up the definition for "physical capital" because it appears several times in the 2003 World Development Report, however, this wikipedia article really does not illuminate the meaning for me any more (as non-economist), would it be possible for someone who is more familiar with this topic to provide an example of what physical capital is? I think this would improve the article substantially.

Merge proposal
I plan to rename and revamp Infrastructural Capital to Public Capital (the aggregate body of infrastructure assets including roads, bridges, rails, electric grids, sewer pipes, and other government facilities). socipoet (talk) 10:25, 12 July 2011 (EST)

Infrastructural capital is a specific form of physical capital, and the content would be improved by merging the specific case into the general case. aprock (talk) 17:59, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
