PRAGER UNIVERSITY: Can The Government Run the Economy?

"Give us five-minutes and we’ll give you a semester." - Dennis Prager

This semester of Prager University is presented by:  Steve Forbes

"[I]n almost all instances, the best prescription for economic health is:  Less (government) is more.  Catastrophic mistakes by governments can poison the marketplace...If you want to understand why the American economy has been growing at the anemic pace of 1-2% a year, look no further (than government interference)." – S.F.

"[T]he economy is not a machine.  It is made up of people, and no one can control what billions of them are going to do...Here's a rule:  The more a government tightens its grip, the less an economy grows.  That's because an economy is not a machine, and government can't force it to act like one." – S.F.
