"I don't think government can improve the economy. If government intervention can improve
economic performance and get us out of recession, is it not stupid to wait for recession in order to
capture the benefits of government economic policies? But then, if government intervention can
improve economic performance and increase the rate of growth, how come socialist/welfare states
consistently perform worse than free-market economies?"
-- Steve Pejovich
Not to mention the well documented history of the American subsidization of such socialist regimes
for decades before they finally flopped. Even Cuba, insofar that we subsidized the USSR, arguably
from its outset.peaceably
