Most people see differences between Republicans and Democrats. Well, sure, but in some ways the two parties are much the same. Nobody makes an issue of the points of agreement, because everybody agrees that's the way things should be done. But what if the way we've been doing things is the source of our economic troubles...?
Democrats and Republicans both expect the Federal Reserve do our inflation-fighting for us. And both use tax policy to stimulate the economy. There is, of course, a lot of bickering about the best way to stimulate the economy. But maybe the bickering is a distraction that keeps us from seeing the problem clearly.
What if the way we've been doing things is the cause of our problems? That would explain why we've been unable to solve the economic problems. It would explain why the problems keep coming back and getting worse. It would explain a lot.
This reminds me of the Hero Worship story.
What if the way we've been doing things is the source of our troubles?
