Essential Economics for Politicians

He's not smart or slick enough to "deceive" anyone, he gets it thrown back in his face every time he tries it in here.

True, he just smiles and keeps on lying...

That's more how I picture nono, except balding, worse teeth and dark holes for eyes like Sarah Huckabee . . . and neurotic as all get out. Dizzy is heavy set, on the short side, thick glasses, small hands and ill fitting clothes.

When ever you post a retort such as that it makes me Laugh !

You the worn out Iron Worker with Leather for skin, Bad Breath/Teeth, Alcoholic vein map nose and a Hair line like a Soup bowl......

Projecting, it's the beat down Union grunts Way....
 
I did learn that had you, bootsie, i'ole or your sensei, E-reader, read the snopes article you would find no mention of FEE whatsoever.

That's true, however it mentions as examples other publications that made the same error as the FEE article. Is that too difficult a concept for you to grasp?
 
Spola it must be a North East thing, you people will leach of the Government , but
when things go wrong you blame the Government.

Just like this letter that was sent by a Parent to President Truman from the Northeast in the fifties.....
Notice how he involves the Presidents daughter....

Your New Mailman Works for Amazon
Forgive the term but capitalism is working, despite its poor reputation.

There he was dropping off packages in the mail room. I picked up mine and walked away. Then I did a double take. The patch on his shoulder was not USPS, FedEx, or UPS. It was the familiar lower case “a” of Amazon.

“Wait, do you actually work for Amazon?”

“Yes, sir.”

“The company that sells things online now has its own warehouse-to-doorstep delivery service?”

“Yes, it’s been around for a year, but expanding by the day. I love my job. It’s a great company.”

I am pretty sure I knew this, but it was only a news story until this moment. There is something about seeing it in real time, and meeting the person who is actually doing it, that makes the reality especially prescient.
 
So Much for Monopoly

We should take time to appreciate what this means. For many decades, the government monopolized mail, crushing competitors at every turn. It goes back to the 19th century. When the US government cracked down on private mail services in 1834, two thirds of existing services were private. Criminal penalties were imposed and they all gradually went away.

The rise of FedEx and UPS crawled through a loophole in the law. The government maintained its monopoly on first-class mail, but permitted exceptions for packages and special deliveries. Then came email. Once the monopoly was shattered, the government’s protected sector became nearly worthless, as we all know. People under the age of 30 hardly even go to their mailboxes anymore.

Think about it: the government’s long-held control over mail was shattered not through reform or privatization but by technology, entrepreneurship, and the forward motion of history itself.
 
The real drama of our times is embedded inside these seemingly small improvements in how we live, all being delivered by private enterprise. Forgive the term but capitalism is working, despite its poor reputation. It’s not the political parties that are doing this. It’s not the bureaucracies. It’s not even the Ivory Tower. The world is being made more beautiful by the profit-and-loss system that is working to serve you and me every day.

I wonder how long the gubment will let this go on?
