The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant: It’s just that they know so much that isn’t so.”
The belief that government creates wealth. . ..
The paradox of thrift as introduced by Keynes which states that while savings is good for the individual it is bad for the overall economy.
Keynesian Economics see story
Economic policy by bureaucratic committee is superior to the millions of interactions of the free market
Increase government does not reduce individual freedoms
The above is the snake-oil of the left. It is time to expose it for what it is, worthless as fools’ gold.
One other myth that goes to the soul of the left, The Great Depression was caused by the failure of the free markets. This is their whole basis for government intervention in the economy. The truth is that it was government actions which caused the length and depth of the Depression. I will have more on this topic later.
