Economics discussion split from "What Beta is not"

[discojoe]

Beta and Gamma are equal and better than both Delta and Alpha, with Delta being the worst (except for Galen, of course )

The thing with Beta is that we need to be fed the proper beliefs and viewpoints, as we tend to take on the most visible of such points of view. Unfortunately, the most publicly and articulately expressed beliefs have been in support of big government, nanny-please-wipe-my-ass bullshit (aka socialism).

And it compounds. As more Betas are indoctrinated, the stronger the socialist absurdity becomes, because Betas are brilliant at articulately defending and promoting any point of view they happen to take up (e.g., Ronald Reagan, an EIE).

I began to support free market economics when I determined to understand the fundamental economic feasibility of Obama's social agenda. A wonderfully clear and concise book, written by a brilliant LIE, convinced me that Obama was a moron. However, I only read it because I am admittedly more objective than the average Beta and don't simply satiate my Ego block when it comes to causes of such enormity.

So what Betas need is a clear and articulate advocation of the proper political agenda -- namely, lassaiz-faire economics and small government. When this happens, we'll make it happen.
