One of the great lessons I learned from Diary of a
Psychosis, your book published by the Libertarian Institute, is
ask yourself what should we expect to see?
So when they tell us, well we need a mask mandate, well we'd
expect to see cases going up, mask mandate enforced, and then
cases going down. So when someone says Hoover was
a hands off free market guy, we would expect to see Hoover come
into office and then spending and government regulation slowly
decreasing on top of the Smoot Hawley tariff taxes from
econlib.org. Federal spending in 1929's
budget that Hoover inherited was $3.1 billion.
He increased spending to 3.3 billion in 1933, point 6 billion
in 1931, and 4.7 billion and 4.6 billion in 1932 and 1933
respectively, a 48% increase over his four years.
So that is just another verifiable lie.
