- But to suggest that we solve the "unemployment problem" (created BY government)

- If ANYONE still has ANY faith in Keynes at this point, I gotta admire their
- stubborness, but not much else... Try reading Hayek or von Mises, or anyone
- else from the Austrian School. Von Mises showed rather conclusively what the
- problems were with socialism in general and Keynesian economics in particular,
- back when these fallacious concepts were first proposed. His predictions of
- total collapse of socialist economies are being shown more and more accurate
- every week...
