it's funny that the causes the idb edito--and WHY do you still post these pieces of crap, ace?---points to are all functions of deregulation (financial bubbles, the fiasco of attempting to put electrical power into non-controlled markets, the housing meltdown).
as for the "solution" offered: at this point, all that's repeated is a neoliberal article of faith. that it's repeated in a situation shaped by the failure of that article of faith to generate anything like the desired outcomes in 3-d indicates that once again the few remaining neoliberals have closed in on themselves, have entirely run away from reality.
at it's center is that tired, useless neoliberal conception of the state.
it's kinda funny to read it, particularly given that the rnc a couple days ago decided to "return to fiscal conservatism" as a way of attempting to maintain something of a republican brand identity. so there's this in the idb editorial page, and the results in the house last night on the economic package.
i look forward to the republicans exploring new and improved degrees of irrelevance as they adopt a neo-hooverite strategy to neither acknowledge their own ideology's centrality in creating this mess and offering nothing in the way of solutions.
