Real Economics. (What the ACTUAL Experts say):

A number of intelligent people have recently posted long articles of worth here to express points of view they agree with. Well I found this and it covers my position perfectly, referencing learned people I have a lot of respect for, who are paid a lot of money to speak and be listened to. It covers economics, politics and the worlds society (particularly referencing Americas future)
What it does not contain is any partisan or exceptionalist BS.😷

I mean I like the dig at the Austrian School with the title. And I don't disagree with the analysis of neo liberalism, but I see the same tired idea of the "Scandinavian model" being some magic fix that also ignores completely that that system is really only possible through unequal exchange and neo-colonialism.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I am not claiming this as a "fix" for Americas ills.If America as we currently know it survives its current economic mess, it will the greatest comeback since Lazarus. An economic system is designed to prevent a society getting into the kind of trouble American is in.. That ship sailed and its name was Titanic.😷
