Marx also understood that individual incentives to produce would inevitably lead to overproduction and painful contractions. To avoid these contractions and their impact on labor costs, he believed the [...]]]></description>

America&#8217;s current struggles notwithstanding, life here is pretty good. We have a standard of living that&#8217;s the envy of most of the world.
Why did that happen? Prosperity isn&#8217;t the norm. Throughout history and throughout the world, poverty has been the norm. Most of the world still lives in dire poverty. [...]]]></description>

The socialist policies implemented by the Obama administration and the Democrat leadership undermine America&#8217;s economic prosperity and prolong the misery for millions of companies and workers.  Despite passing multi-trillion dollar government tax and spend initiatives, numerous bailouts of failed businesses, and repeated extensions of government benefits, Americans are suffering and the economy is languishing.

Americans have less confidence and trust in government today than at any time since the 1950s. This is the conclusion of the Pew Research Center survey released in mid-April.
