About this episode
Recently I have heard a lot of people bitching about how capitalism is failing them and whining about product shortages and how the big corporations are screwing the little guy. Here is my problem with that. A LOT of the complaining would go the hell away if people understood basic economics. You can't blame corporations for product shortages when the raw materials (or completed products) are sitting on a cargo ship somewhere waiting to be unloaded because of government interference. I'm getting real sick of people who don't understand what a credit score is trying to tell the country how to fix the economy. Also the morons who think pumping more cash into the system is somehow going to magically create more wealth. Seriously if you don't understand how these things work, it's time to ask someone who does to explain it to you. Not me though, someone with some patience so it doesn't devolve into a yelling match.
