No, anybody with half a clue knows that unregulated markets give us the boom and best cycle of a depression ever decade and a half (see, the 18th Century) and that a regulated economy performs much, much better.

Moronic ideologgues more wedded to the demogoguery than an actual function markets are too stupid to understand this. Like most idiots, then are unable to discern anything from history.

That's why they (ie, you) are ignored in the modern world. You paleo-economics are in history's dustbin (right beside you, no doubt).

Hundreds Wait in Line for iPad Mini in New York - Digits - WSJ

Even people without the power to charge their new iPad Minis with are lining up!

I'm sure this is somehow Obama's fault too.
That's just crazy liberal hipsters who just can't wait to line the 1%'ers pockets (while chanting we are the 99%) with their latest Apple fix.

What I find scary, though, is that they vote.

Actually we do have markets that are unregulated and they become this way when you appoint EX-Goldman sachs/JPMorgan/ and other major financial employees to these positions. You also get unregulated markets when the politicians who get paid off by many of these corporations decide to give them $10,000 + to defang the regulators.

The reason for the gas shortage is NOT lack of oil or gas but because the refineries have no power to be able to produce and many gas stations have plenty of gas but no power to use the pumps.
Why not? Boooosh was and still is.
