A Booming Economy

You know, our economy is going to crap. We need to get rid of all those capitalists that are ruining it and empower our economy by reaching out to the common man. You know, like Zimbabwe did. Re-distribution of wealth now I say!

Apparently if you run out the evil white farmers that generate your country's export wealth and the act the typical hatter to scare away any foreign investment in your country then things do not go so well. Hey, but at least corn is cheap.

"The government has printed money to pay debts and subsidize some producers, further boosting inflation. The Grain Marketing Board buys corn from farmers at 5,200 Zimbabwe dollars a metric ton, and sells it to millers for 600 Zimbabwe dollars, according to the central bank."

Well, at least we would never try to artificially prop up industries here, or cap the price of gas. We, being enlightened, will raise the tax on gas so the common man can help save the environment. We will tax the evil oil companies more if they still dare make money. We will empower our workers by raising their minimum wage, a harmless token that will never cause basic goods and services to be more expensive.

Paging John Galt
