Sometimes change for the better has to be a forced change. Your so called CATO experts are no more than common everday people with a personal view that they put forth as an educated expert view. It is still only a view of one or a few persons and no more a correct view than yours or mine.
“Sometimes change for the better has to be a forced change.”
Marx (Lenin, Stalin, Mao), is that you? You really don’t believe in freedom, do you? You highlight the fundamental difference we have here. I believe that individuals, left to their own, will make the right choices via the market. You believe that individuals can’t be trusted to make their own choices. Your viewpoint is anti-American and stems from a philosophy that has caused untold human suffering. The empirical evidence is my favor on this one: economic freedom works every time it’s tried.
