But even if he did -which I grant there is a very high probability of-, the regulations he probably refers to in the second part are Adam Smith's good ol' "prevention of fraud and coercion."

To me that seems to make sense... if the average person can't afford a house, the average person won't live in a house and all of a sudden what do we do with all the houses? Turn everything into rentals that perform poorly financially because of how much the cost to buy? The best market economy and governmental structure is one that has balanced forces and shares the best ideas of many different concepts. Just as in nature, pure-bred systems with no diversity are very susceptible to disease.

Point out the hypocrisy to a wingnut and they will just say “you’re a communist libtard weenie.” There’s no getting through to some of these people!

I often find myself unimpressed with illogic of many blogs that try to over simplify the economy... right and left.
