"Nothing harmed the cause of liberalism more than the almost regular return of feverish booms and of the dramatic breakdown of bull markets followed by lingering slumps. Public opinion has become convinced that such happenings are inevitable in the unhampered market economy. People did not conceive that what they lamented was the necessary outcome of policies directed toward a lowering of the rate of interest by means of credit expansion. They stubbornly kept to these policies and tried in vain to fight their undesired consequences by more and more government interference."Ludwig von Mises
[Lido esta manhã no Causa Liberal, muito a propósito das minhas reflexões recentes sobre os bombeiros incendiários municipais do FED e, vá lá, voluntários do BCE]
