And governments are so rational. They're so smart and always do the right thing. They've never destroyed an economy and have never killed anyone in the history of the world.
Some of the most inane economic arguments in the world today consist of thinking a command and control economy by governments will lead you towards economic growth. It is complete lunacy because that is exactly what is ruining my own country; the Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the federal government, trying to plan every single facet of society as to guard against a recession. And what is their only course of action in staving off a recession? Spending money.
Recessions are supposed to be a good thing in economics. It pushes the insolvent or the incompetent players out of the market for better firms to take their place. In command and control economies, this process isn't allowed to occur because cronies in government bail out their friends. I'd much rather have a market dictate what happens in the world because at least if the shitheads make a bad bet they will end up offing themselves.
Well, then you would assume wrong, because Obummer only cares about the illusion of doing the right thing. Everything he agrees to is only a detriment to myself and the rest of the middle class, and I'm someone who voted for the fucking clown.
