Very good explanation, Tim. I agree completely with the statement that government cannot fix economies. Presidents win or lose election due to the economy...while they don't have much control over it.

Governments cannot “fix” the economy.. The best that government can do is to create a friendly environment for investment and expansion. The Economy is an article of faith, people have to be confident that their investments will yield results and until that confidence is restored; our economy will continue to struggle.
