8th most quoted thinker of all time up there with socrates, a new documentary about the american economy.


8th most quoted? Where is your source to support that? But as frequently as you quote him his count is definitely rising. How many times something is quoted means little though. Ever heard of "repeat a lie enough" to sway opinions?

the great recession / depression in america was totally avoidable.

the government could have done 2 things to hire people: fixed infrastructure and built high speed trains all over the country.

this did not happen for political reasons because the economic system and the politics are both so corrupt.
