The real answer of why it's at where it's at, is staring us all in the mirror.
"People Get the governments they deserve." I don't know if there are many better quotes to more aptly describe the situation the world over faces today.
I would agree with you fully (rather than only partly) - if - the voters were given a good picture of what the choices really were. Just go back to the time just prior to 2008 and consider how few people had much of *any* knowledge of how things were done. Even now, we can see from the posts right here in this forum, there is a tremendous lack of knowledge about the basics of how our financial system works.
So, I would amend your statement that this is because of the voters being willfully ignorant to one of this being a combination of incompetence and greed - and (you'll love this) - a conspiracy to keep people ignorant and uninformed. |
Next economic question. WHY is debt so prevalent throughout the world today?
