<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1396641, member: 22143&quot;]I think first there has to be a definition of what constitutes a &quot;good economy&quot;.&nbsp; People will use this phrase, which can mean almost anything, and then the topic gets lost because it devolves into arguments over what this means.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>For what it is worth, my definition is that it&#039;s an economy that provides a living wage for working people without government involvement.&nbsp; IMO, a completely free market will provide for this, but we have hardly had this in America for more than 50 years.&nbsp; Heavy governmental and central banking intervention in the free market does none of this and instead creates the illusion of a good economy by the creation of vast amounts of currency, unprecedented amounts now, which ends up enriching a few and subjecting ever increasing numbers into some sort of governmental dependence.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>On the other hand, if you are a bankster, a wall streeter, a CEO selling off generational assets for short term gain, or someone who likes to gamble on this, or have a taxpayer financed job, you may consider the economy to be a &quot;good economy&quot;.&nbsp; For some, there is a potential to make a lot of cash off the cash being created in the process.&nbsp;&nbsp; Who cares if the generations to follow are left with crushing debts.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>This is why I say &quot;good economy&quot; has to first be defined.&nbsp; Then we can make our judgements.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
