I see you are having fun here, but correct me if I'm wrong - is Platt really
attacking the principle of balance in the market on the grounds of the US
system? Because - Surprise Buddy! - balance isn't really the word to use
there, and it hasn't been even close since Roosevelt's days I'd say. I
suggest you study the Nordic Model, especially in the 60's and 70's, a model
of balance if any, and a models that doesn't let some 10-16% of the
population in a country live beneath the poverty line. It's a lucky thing
you have got that American Dream that so easily fools people into thinking
that it's OK for millions of people in the richest country in the world not
to be able to feed and clothe their children or themselves. So when Platt
says that ""balance" is out of whack by a ton. " I say - no f***ing shit?
There never was balance. You have got the American Dream - climb to the top,
make it on your own - so what if some people don't make it, starve to death
or have to turn to crime to survive in their American Dream - it's liberty!
Where is the Quality in that? The Human Quality?
