RE: My effort to get Steem featured on the Business Insider network
I appreciate the response very pleased to hear your input. I am in a constant evaluation/re-evaluation of these practices, where the information comes from and why it is placed in the manner it is. I respectfully disagree, but I do see where the opinion is quite popular. In the US the amount of pubic works projects that picked up feverishly picked up beyond belief during the international depression during the late 1920s through WWII. The unemployment rates and lack of full utilization never really recovered until ever spare hand was needed to provide a successful national war effort. The hyper inflationary periods following the US post WWII "baby boom" in the mid 1970s resulted in excessive government programs that has created multiple economic bubbles as the progressive tax system has created a tax base in our country that is paid by less than half of the public. Rather than allowing spending within industries/sectors that can provide continual growth (the manufacturing and industrial base of the US), but still providing aid to those most in need, our government policies and waste knows no bounds. Somewhere between full blown government austerity and outright governmental authority on virtually every day activities is likely the answer. I still am very pleased in your work and am very glad to see your efforts taking place here it is a very noble and hopefully fruitful endeavor.
