Taking the Fall Anyway

One of the lesser lights in the libertarian-economist sphere (I can't remember exactly who) asked why they would want to vote for Ron Paul when his election would mean an immediate tanking of the stock market. Well, here's your answer- the stock market tanks anyway. In fact, it's having an awful lot of problems because ya'll don't listen to people like Ron Paul.

So now we have a stock market imploding but no Ron Paul. I couldn't bear to listen to what either candidate had to say today. They both follow some form of Keynesain economics- long refuted, but hard to kill because it suggests government action is warranted, and those that govern love to have experts who justify their actions.

Reject the good doctor, and hire charlatans to distract you from your symptoms. The cure may be unpleasant, but the disease, left unchecked, will destroy you.
