I'll agree on one the thing, sorta. Markets should always drive the economy. Without a market or potential market, we need evaluate the spending's worth. But I will add that taking advantage of increased pool sizes and other economies of scale a central government provides makes sense for certain things.
Socialism has been with us since our founding, and went on steroids shortly after WW2. All of these "economic" fears have not been realized. our standard of living has indisputably gone up. There is absolutely no empirical evidence or models that suggest otherwise (other than debt bubbles). Some people might suggest we have a good economy now, despite all of this fear mongering.
Thanks for reposting the article. After a rereading it I realized it had nothing to with economics, freedom, property rights, standard of living or the other things it claimed. It was solely about fear of brown people.
