I’ve heard stories about people in congress getting calls 100 against to every 1 for from last fall’s bailout bill. And they still passed it.

Makes me think this whole representative government thing they have lording over us is really just a sham.

The Right Monetary and Fiscal Policy Can not Get Us Out of the Depression DIE ZEIT: Can the right monetary and fiscal policy keep the US out of a recession? Alan Greenspan: "Probably not. Global forces can now override most anything that monetary and fiscal policy can do. Long-term real interest rates have significantly more impact on the core of economic activity than the individual actions of nations. Central banks have increasingly lost their capacity to influence the longer end of the market. Two to three decades, ago central banks were dominant throughout the maturity schedule. Thus, the more important question is the direction of long-term real interest rates." Alan Greenspan The Great Irony of Success © ZEIT online, 30.1.2008 A Credit Free, Free Market Economy will correct all of those dysfunctions. The alternative would be, on the long run, to wait for the physical destruction (through war or rust) of most of our productive assets. It will be at a cost none of us can afford to pay.

you mean everything wasn’t caused by the “free market,” and maybe, just maybe, the government is making problems for us economically?

nooooooooo, say it ain’t so!
