Is Anybody Out There? Hello Alone.

This title is a refrence to a song entitled "Hello Alone" by Anberlin. Most people are aware that my last post "What's the Frequency Kenneth?" was turned into a song by R.E.M. I was listening to the song Hello Alone and I was inspired to write this entry. It seems today, especially at the liberal university I attend, that the title of this blog is the question that I endlessly seem to be shouting into a dark cave. In fact its worse than a cave, a cave at least humors you by echoing your question back to you. I seem to be screaming this question at the top of my lungs at a void. A void that swallows it up without even humoring me by throwing my own question back at me to create the illusion of a companion. I briefly touched upon the recent bailout plan propossed by the president and the congress and how I beleive; or rather how I KNOW, that it is an economic blunder that is at least comporable to anything that any misguided or confused "progressive" enatced during the 1930's. in fact I call them "regressives." They want to drag us back to a time where government controlled our lives and nothing could be done without Big Brother's OK.

The Austrian theory of the business cycle and monetary policy, laid out by Karl Menger and exapnded upon by the great champions of liberty Ludwig von Mises and Muray Rothbard, are being proven more and more correct everyday. For me to even attempt to explain the intricate details of these men's writtings would be the ultimate disserivice. Instead all this blog is aimed at doing is to make these ideas open to people who may have not yet had the opportunity to come across them yet. I will provide a link to the Mises Institute where interested readers can explore these ideas for themselves. The link I will provide will link to an article that explains in detial many of the economic problems we face today and how to deal with them. There are around 40 article links on this one entry but all anyone has to do is click in the search bar then enter a topic and a plethoria of information will be made available to them.

Many economists disagree with these men and women who follow the so called "Austrian" or "Venice" school of thought. Some call it idealistic, and some call it radical. However there is one thing that these individuals are; they are 100% right.
