"I don't believe we shall ever have a good money again before we take the thing out of the hands of government, that is, we can't take it violently out of the hands of government, all we can do is by some sly roundabout way introduce something that they can't stop." - F.A. Hayek 1984

(kinda) A great website to share if you have no idea how to explain the downfall of the US economy.

Edit: Thanks to everyone who provided insight on this website. I’ve had this in my bookmarks for a very long time and was curious how it held up.

    I dunno i read all those graphs and think.
    Well there was a lot of banking deregulation from 1971 onwards?
    Let’s give that bank regulation idea another shot maybe - it can’t do worse.

    . . .but then i also think - good on china for that one child policy.

    I’m just not getting anywhere near the Hayeck conclusion from the same data.

      The take that the homepage is trying to sell you, hinted at by the Hayek quote.

      This homepage is usually posted by right wing libertarians.
