What?
Gov't had no INVOLVEMENT WITH YOUR SUCCESS RIGHT? No laws, education, roads, etc
You Klowns did it ALL on your own, lol
The Republican sham of lower taxes and less regulation doesn't help anyone but the richest Americans and Big Business and kill jobs and opportunity for almost everyone, especially in the middle class and poor.
"The only orthodox object of the institution of government is to secure the greatest degree of happiness possible to the general mass of those associated under it."
Thomas Jefferson
You really do shock me sometimes, and not in a good way.
Yes, without gov't intervention. The gov't played no part in us hiring new people, buying old companies that were dying and deciding to keep their workers on rather than fire them. We did that.....hold onto your hats, WITHOUT GOV'T INTERVENTION.
Don't tell me you support Obama's you didn't build it crap, right? We pay taxes out of our asses for those fucking roads, they BETTER be there. You act like the fucking roads are a privilege to own and I owe the gov't thanks for them existing. If they tax my ass at gunpoint for the money to build them, they better fucking be there.
Got it, I was wrong about YOU being a moderate, you are ANOTHER right wing extremist without honesty. Shocking
(Re-)Introducing: The American School of Economics
When the United States became independent from Britain it also rebelled against the British System of economics, characterized by Adam Smith, in favor of the American School based on protectionism and infrastructure and prospered under this system for almost 200 years to become the wealthiest nation in the world. Unrestrained free trade resurfaced in the early 1900s culminating in the Great Depression and again in the 1970s culminating in the current Economic Meltdown.
Frank Bourgin's 1989 study of the Constitutional Convention shows that direct government involvement in the economy was intended by the Founders
American School economics - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Libertarianism is one of those things that sounds good when you read about it in high school, or maybe your first year of college. But once you are out in the real world for say, five, or even six entire minutes, you quickly realize it's a narcissistic, child-like ideology that doesn't actually work and has no basis in reality
Funny, Dad...Thomas Sowell says the same exact thing about Marxism. When he was a young, naive college student he thought Marxism was the wave of the future. It was only after he got out of school and started working for the government studying economics that he realized that everything he'd been taught had no basis in reality and then he became a libertarian. Maybe if you got out of Mom & Dad's basement and got out in the real world...you'd figure that out as well!
