When pundits or policymakers start talking about sacrificing the well being of various people to serve the economy, I know they are talking of doing evil. The economy exists to serve the people, not vice versa.
It just drives me crazy. Also? The people making these policies are supposed to be our public SERVANTS, NOT our MASTERS! Funny how they seem to conveniently forget that.
