Abstract

It is extremely puzzling that our level of ignorance goes far enough to hurt even those who are against any economic activity to get the mighty American market system going. As has been stated throughout this book, a powerful opposition in Congress is opposed to any kind of economic activity. This group and its supporters are suffering from an acute case of ignorance. They have no idea that they are not only hurting the American economy but are also hurting themselves. Those people who do not want any economic change or economic progress are most likely to be part of a group that will benefit the most from any economic advancement; they should be championing economic progress possibilities. Among many other things, some of which are discussed in this book, infrastructure development is extremely critical for economic well-being and economic progress.
