I guess it depends on your definition of the word "worked." I used to believe the past was always better. Until I read about it. Maybe pre-industrial America was more idyllic, but industrialized America changed many things. We let the industrialists and bankers run free for decades and they pretty much ****ed everything up. Now we want to give global corporations and bankers another bite at the unregulated apple. Given what they just did to the economy of the world after only a few regulations were lifted, I'm guessing that's not a good idea.

It's dangerous to give the Federal Reserve more power to regulate others while nobody is even regulating the Fed. It just helps the Fed and their cronies have an advantage.

That's a good example of one of their advantages. They're the only ones who know the real size of our money supply.

I agree. The sticky wicket is, who regulates the regulators? As ****ed up as Congress currently is, I wouldn't put them in charge of ****ing a football.

Fixed it for you..

Since congress makes laws..

BTW you can throw in about that many years of SCOTUS that have been proactive by making laws.. Not ruling on them..

Depends on what you mean by 'failed'...If blood running thru the streets, never before seen oppression, brain drain, favors for those in favor, and evil abounding throughout the land is your thing, then you probably would call Socialism a 'success'.

I don't know how else one should learn about history. It's not like you can relive it.

I have been saying for years America is being destroyed by global forces that have seized control of the federal government and called un American for my fore sight

Now it is becoming so obvious then even the obtuse are seeing it. Lets hope it's not too late.

Neither has laissez faire capitalism. If you want to know the most successful government type ever, it was monarchy.
