Oh, brother. You are playing like you're John Kenneth Galbraith. These are straw man claims. No libertarian thinks that the free markets create uninterrupted growth in all circumstances. And Francis Fukuyama is a guru of some neoconservatives and think tankers, who are not necessarily hard-shell libertarians. I was referring to the metamarkets site. Their thesis seems to be that if it wasn't for government intervention and forces outside of the free market we would not be in this bear market. I don't know what your politics are and you can't tell what mine are from my postings here - but I think you can appreciate the irony that most of the free market types also believe in social darwinism and they have been blinded from seeing the market and economy for what it really is and will be among the first to be wiped out.
