The Magic Money Machine

SEE HERE Well here's how it works while the money holds out. It's simple really. You go into competition with the private sector by charging very low prices. You can do that because you're taxing people's money, you're printing money, you're seizing resources and you're telling those who are needy that they are being exploited while you cut them a better deal by stealing from those who have something. It doesn't work for long, but while it works you are a hero and when it starts not to work you blame it on those same "bad guys" you've been blaming everything on all along. Then, often enough, there is violence and a pogram and at the end everyone is poor and starving and the whole system is in a shambles. Part of the problem is that people who don't really know any better believe the authorities. They wouldn't lie to them would they? It all goes back to Maggie's (Margaret Thatcher) saying: "The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money."

We've made a good start. Watch Venezuela to see how well it works. Wouldn't you like a 50 cent Big Mac? Gee, doesn't this sound like the Obama health care plan?
