In spite of the fact that this is sound economic theory, the general population will not understand or believe the facts. It's like when 401K's first appeared on the scene, many people did not want to use it as an investment tool because they refuesd to believe it was good for them, they thought it was 'smoke up the arse", same reason many would not believe Hauser's Law if it was explained by a politician.

So rather than do what is right we are forced to do what is convenient in order to ensure votes.

Very sad situation.
