«The seepage of government into everywhere is, we are assured, to be temporary and nonpolitical. Well.»

«If you had any personal honor, each reporter and editor would be insisting on telling the truth -- even if it hurts the election chances of your favorite candidate.»

Great analogy to begin the article, terrible plan for saving the US economy. The Peretic Plan: stop inflating the money supply, reduce taxes across the board (specifically on businesses), decrease government spending, and let the market correct itself. Here's the key, recessions are not part and parcel of the free market system, they are the cruel side effect of fake booms caused by government credit injection. Spare the credit injection, spare the world.

Hot, hot infomatics.

This is why you read The Atlantic.
