um...no.
so MUCH no.
for one thing the economy is NOT designed.
see Adam Smith's wealth of nations and pay particular attention to the invisible hand
it's not a new concept...Wealth of Nations was written a LONG time ago.
It remains true to this day.
True, not designed.
Guided maybe?
here's where I differ from you conspiracy guys.
you see hydra sitting on it's throne of power, behind the scenes, moving chess pieces around controlling the whole world.
I don't see it that way. I look at it in the same way I'd look at weather.
A ZILLION tiny factors , constantly changing, to produce the current results.
Some blame the 'weather god'...or even more ridiculous HAARP..
I blame cold fronts..
Same thing with the world's economy today..
and by the way...everything is getting better and better for everyone.
today IS the 'good old days'.
its never been a better time to be alive...
I'm not a conspiracy guy :)
I did make the argument about weather and cars.
Everyone blames cow farts and cars for the ozone and melting ice crap.
So what made the Ice Age melt?
I know... The Ford Model T!
lol
it might not be a bad idea to not be concerned about why the "ice age melted" but rather be more concerned that it's likely to freeze up again.
REAL SOON
