Very well thought out and well written. I couldn’t agree more. Like you I think this economic crisis is going to bring more government into things, not less because people have been sold a bill of goods that government can actually fix things.
This argument that the recession is proof that laissez-faire economics doesn’t work is the most inane thing I’ve ever heard. It might have some plausibility if we actually had laissez-faire economics in this country, but we’ve got the biggest most intrusive government in the history of the nation. If the Big Government liberals can’t make things work now, then Big Government just doesn’t work.
.....not less because people have been sold a bill of goods that government can actually fix things.

Yes, and as long as the the ignorant and naive half of the electorate believes this, the general condition of America will CONTINUE to deteriorate.
