Watch and weep.
Unmasking The Unintended Consequences Of US Central Planning | zero hedge: "The NIA continues with its series of bite-sized video documentaries exposing the stupidity and lies out of the US government. While the previous clip looked at a fictitious world in which the dollar had just died, today's is one which analyzes the plethora of unintended consequences that emerge as a result of the government's centrally planned tinkering. As always, it is a must watch, even if one does not agree with the NIA's overarching theme that government policies will ultimately result in uncontrollable price moves following the destruction of the reserve currency."
Just to be clear: I don't agree with absolutely everything shown -- most notably the simplistic comments about national defense. For instance, most libs have no clue about the existence of this little ditty by someone you might have assumed was in your hip pocket. He has been swallowed by his own memory hole.
On the other hand, defense -- much less outright war -- is unmistakably a costly endeavor that needs careful deliberation and should never be undertaken without either winnable objectives or to demonstrate unmistakably to an enemy that the price of further aggression is unacceptable -- and preferably before the enemy can gather strength. Or to fight for our very survival which is what we always somehow end up in because these are never achieved now are they?
That said, WTWT.
