  3. Summary of the massive regulatory state, including the Unconstitutionality Index (ratio of rules written by unelected bureaucrats to laws passed by Congress)

Coming soon (targeting Valentines Day):

  1. Description/amount of each cost reduction (w/ receipts where applicable)
  2. Overall savings scorecard

"Basic economics" like Adam Smith?

“For one very rich man there must be at least five hundred poor, and the affluence of the few supposes the indigence of the many.”

-Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations

Or how about a quote from the author in your image?

"Capitalism knows only one color: that color is green; all else is necessarily subservient to it"

-Thomas Sowell, Basic Economics: A Common Sense Guide to the Economy

Or would you prefer we quote "advanced economics" like Marx?

So you admit that even your favorite economists are commies that have read Marx?
