Tamny: Economists' Plans for Fixing Economy Won't Work Until They Acknowledge Limits of Government Intervention
Financial experts John Tamny and Christopher Waller have recently expressed differing opinions on how to address government intervention in the economy, but both seem to be overlooking a fundamental issue, according to Tamny. In an article published by Forbes, Tamny argues that neither Waller nor Kevin Warsh will be correct until they acknowledge that government intervention cannot be fixed.
Tamny's statement comes as Waller and Warsh have been discussing ways to address the current economic situation, with some suggesting that the Federal Reserve has a role to play in stabilizing the economy. However, Tamny believes that these efforts will ultimately fail until they recognize the limitations of government intervention.
Tamny's views are reminiscent of those expressed by Alan Greenspan, who has also spoken out against excessive government intervention in the economy. According to Tamny, the dollar is a key factor in the current economic situation, and any attempts to fix it must take into account its value relative to other currencies.
