pirana 0 #27 May 5, 2009 QuoteToday as a finale paper in my economic class, I was given an assignment to create a Economic System that successfully runs for 150 years... I have yet to find away.... Any opinions on what you think would be needed.... Since my research shows that no economic systems has ever ran 150 years I'm thinking this is an assignment based on backing which economic system is best... So what is the criteria for "successfully runs" and conversely what is it that happens for it to be judged as no longer running successfully? Is there a requirement for growth?" . . . the lust for power can be just as completely satisfied by suggesting people into loving their servitude as by flogging them and kicking them into obedience." -- Aldous Huxley Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
