How Things Fall Apart

Michael Perelman

Chapter Chapter 11 in The Confiscation of American Prosperity, 2007, pp 163-166 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract No country in the world has ever developed on the basis of laissez-faire. The United States is no exception. Government has always played a central role in the development of the U.S. economy. In the few times that the government has lurched in the direction of laissez-faire, serious economic depressions have soon followed.
