Nah...I stand by what I posted.
But then, I am not a believer in the Milton Friedman "no government regulations" and the "free market will act in the best interest of the country" school of economics.
More of a Keynesian.
I thought all that government investment in the 47-55 post WW II "boom years" development of infant industries followed by the 60s "space age" creation of the new aerospace industry was good for the economy, all of which had "trickled down" positive impacts (as opposed to supply side economics). The same for the comprehensive environmental laws of the 70s. All of the above not only created jobs, but stimulated innovation and contributed in no small way to a vibrant economy.
