So, only you, with your magical powers, are capable of deducing that all the good prosperity that has been created by America is the result of some percentage of free market capitalism and all the bad non prosperity is the result of extravagant government based social spending spree that has crippled our country primarily since FDR.

Please oh enlightened one, let us in on the secret?

(Grains of Salt)

So I am assuming, with all your grains of salt, that you have finally figured out what I said before? Can we now say that I never said it didn't exist?

And there is no magic about it.. If you feel like taking the time to educate yourself instead of spouting out the party line, you will come to the same conclusion:

Your shit doesn't make sense even when you try to use someone else's logic...

A couple of minutes of talk without focusing on the issue and this justifies our faith in your magical powers? Tell us great one, what does this mean? We are tired of your riddles and parables, please enlighten us!

Nobel Prize Winning....Bump Bump Ba Ba
Stand at Attention...Jafo says that if a Nobel Prize winning economist says a Nobel Prize winning physicist was driven by greed. IT IS SO!

(Please record this in the cosmic records and go inform Albert he is a greedy little bastard)

You can bring a horse to water, but apparently you can empty him of shit..

Great reply! Just add that to the pile of garbage you usually spout out and I think your precious state is going to require you get a landfill permit.

As soon as someone else here besides me actually puts forward any logic, maybe you will be satisfied.

Oh come on Jafo, It is quite obvious, you understand this about as well you and understand social security. No at all! So how can you be expected to explain it?

Tell me, exactly why should I explain anything to you? You don't read my responses at all. I have destroyed your arguments over and over and you just come back with this petty bullshit. It's pretty pathetic actually.

Where is YOUR argument? Just like intelligence, you have none.

You have argued that the Great Depression is the result of the Federal Reserve not manipulating the free market by devaluing the dollar (what the Federal Reserve was supposed to do in this situation according to their charter written by progressives). The progressives were followed by a scandalous fellow named Harding and a boring chap named Coolidge who were TRICKLE DOWN THEORISTS. They also had a fellow named Benjamin Strong at the Federal Reserve (a Morgan Man (JP that is)) and an industrialist named Mellon heading the Treasury. You would have loved them! They almost ended the progressive income tax and they were acting to return the world to the gold standard (that nasty WWI and all its debt had really made a mess of the Gold Standard). Well, as Milton said, their descendants (because they were gone when Hoover came around) kept the fire burning. They did not act (as Milton would have) because they said the Market needed a good cleaning (and don't forget, they could not loosen the amount of available cash because the law required that they could not devalue the dollar below 40% of the gold standard (as a Ron Paul Supporter another thing you would be proud of)).

Does not really make sense given your argument that manipulating the free market created the Great Depression?

(Grain of Salt...Grain of Salt...Just Chant....Grain of Salt)

Oh, did I point out that Milton Friedman is a Nobel Prize winning Economist!

My argument is that Fed did not do their job, the ones they took away from banks in 1913 when the Federal Reserve was created. As Milton wrote:



So yes, socialist MEDDLING created the great depression, not some failure of capitalism. Why don't you chant that a few times.



Tell me, when you start chanting like that, is that they point the tighten your jacket there in the rubber room?

The MYTH OF THE BENEVOLENT RICH

Tell me, did you hurt your head when you fell off the Milk truck? You must have hit it pretty hard?

Who said anything about benevolence? The pre-fed banks would have taken care of themselves out of self interest, not for any want of being altruistic. It is the guise of benevolence that established bumbling socialist institutions like the Fed.
