Of course the fact that its filled with ideological bile is a counter argument.

Only as a matter of pure rhetoric, and then only to those who are thinking with emotion and not logic. "X is full of ideological bile" does not imply "X is wrong about Y".

The fed. gov't wasn't getting these numbers out of thin air. Private industry was feeding those numbers to them. It was private industry that fukked up; not the fed. gov't.

Private industry gave estimates based on normal appropriate methods that turned out to be too low.

Government created the whole framework for the industry that was behind in the shortage.

The later is a much bigger example of "fukked up".

And you go along with it because it plays to your book.

I examine and respond to arguments that don't "play to my book". You dismiss them out of hand. That's being extremely close minded on your part.
