Economists are wrong

Economists are wrong, when they say that the invisible hand will guide resources in the most effective way, giving everyone the best possible outcome. - In the long run.

They may actually be right, as far as only money is concerned - in the long run, but if current all over well being is concerned, they could not be more wrong. Yet the world is run by their rules. For the worse of us all. (Well; except for he filthy rich, of course).

In the long run wealth may perhaps be distributed in the most effective way; but in the short run people are suffering, starving, and dying. When waiting for the invisible hand to finally show some effect.


Finland has never before been this rich, and yet Finland 'cannot afford' taking care of the old, the poor, and the sick. - As care taking just does not bring in cash.

After the war, when Finland was poor, Finland was a friendly country. Well, it no longer is.
Our values are badly off balance.
