I had considered giving you my predictions regarding the 2024 election, but it's not really pertinent. What is pertinent, however, is that you don't need to be an economist to notice that people are most prosperous when the government keeps its abnormally large nose out of the economy. Unfortunately, after the US government has kept an uninterrupted stranglehold on the economy for the past hundred years, I don't think anyone currently involved in politics has ever considered building a wall of separation between market and state.

Speaking of which, do you think that we need to abandon the word "capitalism," as Lewis Barton suggests, or try to reclaim the term as LiquidZulu suggests? I'm still on the fence in that regard.
