This presentation from 2009 is worth repeating...
"There is a mountain of evidence that purposeful — government directed — economic planning programs fail to live up to expectations. Rather than embrace more of the same, perhaps it would be better if Americans, Puerto Ricans, Bahamians and others removed obstacles to freedom of association and trade and let a diversified people with diversified interests invest and consume as they say fit. The sum total of their work and their lives will very well likely make the fabric of any economy stronger — even more diversified — than it might otherwise be when directed by the iron fist of government." Michael LaFaive
