These firms have continued to thrive during the pandemic, and have contributed enormously to the astounding recovery of the stock market since mid-April. Quote The economic-growth theorist Edmund Phelps summarized the primacy of culture over policy when it comes to innovation: “Attitudes and beliefs were the well-spring of the dynamism of the modern economies. It is mainly a culture protecting and inspiring individuality, imagination, understanding, and self-expression that drives a nation’s indigenous innovation.” The U.S. excels at cultivating more of these characteristics than other country by encouraging competition in free markets... If you blindly believe the myth (the wellspring of attitudes and beliefs) that modern economies are designed "by encouraging competition in free markets", then you're likely to miss the irony of the above two snipits from this article...not only from an economic perspective but more importantly from a cultural perspective. Regarding the America/Canada comparison, I mostly agree. But the Horatio Alger nonsense of American economic exceptionalism is just too naive for my tastes. You asked. "...in a very few days we succeeded in taking over one hundred beaver, the skins of which were worth ten dollars per pound." Jim Beckwourth (1856)

Last I talked to him, camps fell into a crack that had yet to be addressed by the government. With 90% of his customers locked out of the country, by his government, its hard to believe his business wasn't towards the top of the list. www.rtssetter.com
