Makes ya wonder, doesn't it? They always claim that the
"central planners" are "smarter than the average human."
Why then, do their plans always fail? And why do we keep allowing them to try
in our behalf? Maybe they ARE "smarter" than we are. Smart enough
anyway to con us. Tom Sowell says that if mothers could do complicated surgery
in their kitchens, what would we need "medical professionals" for?
The same applies to "professional planners." More often than not,
their "plans" fail and "amateurs" dp better. So why do we
need "professional planners? Except to give them the POWER to plan for us?
Frankly, that's what they're after. How about school? "Academic professionals
SAY we shouldn't "home school" our children for a variety of reasons,
but home schooled children commonly outperform public school children. So for
what do we need "academic professionals?" One of the best examples of
"professional" failures is communism and socialism, It has become so
painfully obvious that "central planning" doesn't work, even
communist and socialist governments are altering their systems to allow for
more capitalism, while engaging in it themselves in their dealings with other
countries after decades of collectivism (the same thing as both). showed it
didn't work. But liberals keep promoting collectivism (socialism, communism)
for us, and every time a socialist gets elected, he or she pushes
"sharing" onto the populace, and that "old saw," "central planning." It doesn't
work worth a damn, but we keep buying it because they "couch it" in
good-sounding terms. But "central planning" is doomed to failure by
its very complexity. Individuals, no matter how well educated, are not capable
of controlling ALL the variables involved. So they pretend they're "in
control" and when one plan fails, they never acknowledge it. They just
announce "a new plan." Amateurs do not fail because all they have to
control is their own little niche. (Economist Tom Sowell)
