Mark plays some audio of the great Milton Friedman and explains how it is impossible for the government to spend your money better then you can.
Politicians are going to spend $800 billion dollars which they claim will stimulate the economy. For the same amount of money we could eliminate the payroll tax for the rest of the year, giving the average worker thousands of dollars back in their pocket. Instead of more government spending, why not just let the American people spend their own money?
Based on a theory known as Keynesianism, politicians are resuscitating the notion that more government spending can stimulate an economy. This mini-documentary produced by the Center for Freedom and Prosperity Foundation examines both theory and evidence and finds that allowing politicians to spend more money is not a recipe for better economic performance.
Nobody knows how to get more free* money from the government than ubiquitous TV pitchman Matthew Lesko ( http://www.leskobooks.com/index.html ). And now he’s cashing in on the biggest pile of government loot since the Treasury first started printing greenbacks.
