A lot of the human suffering is a result of us bringing it on ourselves anyway.

[Cafe Hayek] Stimulie, I: Fiscal stimulus during The Depression is considered a failure as the economy was not in much better shape in 1940 as it was in 1933 (although there is disagreement). The Kennedy tax cuts (enacted after his death in 1964) did appear to stimulate, but these cuts were permanent, and thus not the same as the stimulus being discussed and probably had some supply-side effects (people more encouraged to make money, ect.) If I remember right there was a one-time stimulus in 1976(?), but the result was that in that age of uncertainty most people just held onto the money.

[Rolfe Winkler] Rolfe Winkler » Blog Archive » Buffett's Betrayal | Blogs |: Rolfe, you are correct in pointing out that many of Buffett’s investments have received bailouts, but I think you do not give enough credit to him for the things he has advocated that are beneficial to the public. His early call on regulating derivatives, staying away from leverage in investments, championing against the abolition of the estate tax, let along the valuable and safe tenants he has applied to make money, all fall on the other side of the scale.
