And the prescription is more...Morehouse! Here is SFE's founder Isaac Morehouse talking on the Freedom Philosophy.

This video demonstrates a basic economic fact: businesses survive by giving someone what they want. The cooperation of the market place creates the greatest human satisfaction. 

And here to explain the concept through the tasty, tasty analogy of a seafood market are some young people from the Free to Choose Network:

This is a great letter that Don Boudreaux had in the Wall Street Journal recently: 

Robert Reich misunderstands regime uncertainty. Regime uncertainty is increased by changes that project into the indefinite future a greater degree of arbitrary government economic intervention.

For this reason, talk of replacing the Federal Reserve's arbitrary monopoly over the U.S. money supply with a more decentralized and competitive monetary system does not, contrary to Mr. Reich's claim, spawn regime uncertainty of the sort that is spawned by "progressive" talk of (and action toward) empowering government with ever-more authority to tax, spend, borrow, block, "protect," punish, reward, subsidize, bail out, restrict, require, prohibit, cap, quantitatively ease, universally insure, stimulate, regulate, investigate, interrogate, moratoriate and otherwise override, with politically poisoned official diktats, the private choices and contracts of individuals.

It is in response to an op-ed Robert Reich wrote pertaining to uncertainty that the Tea Party apparently provides. As Prof. Boudreaux notes, while Reich appears to believe the Fed offers stability in wildly volatile times, business owners see very little rhyme or reason to the largely arbitrary measures undertaken at the federal level.
