From an investment newsletter (Daily Wealth) by Dr. Steve Sjuggerud: “Government policy shouldn't be this hard or this disastrous. Most of the time, the right answers for government come if you just think about it as if it were your family or your own business. For example, if it were your own money, would you take a private plane 365 times in two years to commute to work? Or would you take all of your family's money and borrow as much money as humanly possible from other family members to buy a fleet of brand new Hummers – destined to fall in value? Whenever you get confused about what the government is up to, here's a little secret for you... Just take it back to the basics. Simply ask yourself this: If this were my family, or my business, would I spend my money this way? Why can't governments from the smallest municipality all the way to the new administration abide by that simple standard?” This is something to think about, no?
