Quote of the Day

How many times have you heard Capitalism is the cause of our problems? Here is the quote of the day.
...capitalism is unfairly blamed for the mortgage meltdown and the economic crisis. Capitalism wasn't in place, in fact. If capitalism had been practiced, it wouldn't have been half the disaster there was, maybe not any. The bad apples woulda gone away. Nobody woulda bailed 'em out! If capitalism had been in play, nobody would have been given a loan that couldn't pay the money back. If capitalism had ruling the roost there would not be such a thing as a subprime mortgage. Capitalism's very simple! It's government that comes in and rigs the game, triesto make the impossible possible; when it doesn't work, then blames capitalism for it, then comes up with even more government programs to fix the original program that caused the problem!

My libertarian friends may not like him, but he's right. The housing market collapse is the result of Central Planning, not Capitalism.
