For anyone who says that central planning, especially by the government, will lead to economic success and growth needs to wash out their headgear.

The best example of how great the government is at running a business is just how well the government did running a brothel.

Sex is generally something that is wanted by people during economic booms and busts.

When the famous “Mustang Ranch” brothel’s owner was convicted of tax evasion, the IRS took control of the brothel, and they tried to run it.

The result was the brothel went broke and eventually out of business. The government said that they closed it because it was something the government shouldn’t be involved in. But reports were that the government was unable to make a profit on sex, or even break even.

Think about that the next time a booger eating moron like AOC talks about business or economics.
