Quote from Tigerjaw:
IMO the 'answer' is to stop the politicians from 'doing' anything. That's what screws things up.
Stop all the economic bail out non-sense. End the Fed. Go back on a gold standard. Let the banks that used fraud and were reckless go under and be taken over by stronger banks.
End government interference in as many areas as possible. Open up true market based competition. Capitalism didn't fail, but we haven't had true capitalism for many years. - - Drastically cut the size of government. (Eliminating their ability to 'borrow' money printed from the Fed would help reduce government.) Get government and the lawyer/liar/politicians that live off of them out of peoples lives.
It took a long time for things to get this bad, it would likely take decades for all of this to be phased in & for people to be educated on the principles & ideals on which the country was founded (before Hamiliton and his ilk established the same kind of merchantilism that they were subjected to under the British king.) Go back to teaching kids about their history and the Constitution.
These ideas are further expanded by the Austrian school of economics, Ludwig von Mises, Murray Rothbard, and many other voices for Liberty. - - -
