Its Gonna Get Bad (It Has To)

Politicians want us to believe they are magicians. Anything that ails you can be cured by their magic powers. "Need a car? Let me wave the magic wand of legislation and I'll help you out." "Lost your job and need some money, you say? Let me turn on the magic money machine and I'll give you some." Sounds wonderful right? Sure does, but only in the here and now. What about later on down the road? How will all this magic affect us in the future? Here's the dirty little secret, most of the politicians don't know, and nearly all of them don't really care! Its all about political expediency.

Over the past several months, the "magicians" in Washington DC have been debating on how they should wave the magic wand to fix our economic woes. However, the only real solution to our problems is having a hard time finding its way into that debate. The only real solution is to get the government out of the way of the American people and letting a free market run its course. The political class will have none of that talk. They will say that if we let the free market run wild things will get worse.

Guess what folks, they are RIGHT!!!

If we could snap our fingers today and have totally free markets with the economy in the shape it is in now, things would get worse. Why? Because we have to cleanse our system of all the government mishaps that our "magicians" put in. Government interference in the market place has drugged our economy. In order to get it back to health, we WILL have to go through the necessary withdrawals.

The process wont be pretty, and its gonna get bad.

However, free markets are the answer. Free people can clean up the mess. I would much rather take my lumps now and have freedom than to continue under government intervention after government intervention and have the mess only continue to grow worse. Liberty is at stake.
