One of my more brilliant observations or creations is what I like to call "The Destructive Principle."
In short it is the theory or law that it is easier to destroy something that already exists than to create something of value that is new.
You say, "well, what's so big about that?"
Well, it delves deep, deep, deep into the leftist crusader mindset and is vital to understand.
Understand ALL human beings have a desire to achieve something. Some people want to go to the moon. Others want to start a family. Some want to start a business. However, it is a question of whether you have the work ethic and tenacity to set goals, study hard, prepare and set out to achieve those goals. But for many people on the left they do not have the work ethic to go forth and produce something of value. Instead, they find it much easier to protest against something thereby avoiding having to produce anything of worth yet still feeling good about themselves as they "crusade" against some perceived evil or ailment of society.
What is key to understand though about The Destructive Principle is that these people, if intellectually dishonest enough, do not care whether what they set out to destroy or crusade against is indeed an ailment or something bad. Matter of fact, some professional protesters and crusaders will go out of their way to besmirch and vilify something that is largely innocent and productive for society simply so they can avoid a real job, yet get to play "make believe super hero crusader."
The video below is again a mere sampling of my economic genius. Please note the worthlessness of the people's degrees I highlight in the video and ask yourself the question;
"Do they care about society or do they just really care about themselves to the point they hold no reservations of making it worse for society so they can play "super crusader make believe adult hero."

In chemistry we call it "entropy." All matter is ordered, and that order requires energy. But, matter also want's to be in it's simplest state, which requires less energy. Which is why gasoline burns, plants decompose, and hot items cool to room temperature.
Capitalism requires that people harness energy and create order out of the chaos. "Creative destruction," I believe it's called. Corporations that are monolithic dinosaurs will fail, their capital and resources spread to others who will use those building blocks, and through massive amounts of energy, create new companies.
And leftists ask why "simple" is bad? Because if we were stuck with the simple chemical compounds, we wouldn't have things like computers. Or pencils. Or that much-vaunted "health care" that leftist parasites want others to pay for.
Keep up the great work, Captain!
If creative destruction happens to corporate monolithic dinosaurs through capitalism and competition...
Is it possible for the same creative destruction to occur to governmental monolithic tax and spend dinosaurs such as socialist, Communist and Marxist states?
I think that largely happened to the USSR and many of the old Warsaw Pact countries - although President Reagan's policies forced the issue and pushed their shaky economies off balance.
I think our Federal Government may have reached the point of no return - there is no way to pay for the entitlements the government has promised everyone.
The government can't possibly raise taxes high enough to cover those entitlements - taxpayers and businesses will revolt if they did.
The government can't go deeper into debt without collapsing the economy. Who will buy our worthless debt?
The government can't cut entitlements without massive protests and citizens revolt.
The Federal Government as the myopic and monolithic dinosaur it is now cannot survive. Sooner or later it must reform, or it will implode as surely as the USSR did.
BTW, this "too big to fail" bunk runs counter to capitalism and competition. Anything that is "too big to fail" should be broken up into smaller companies so we never get into the situation of "too big to fail". Joe Schumpeter is probably spinning in his grave.
In Atlas Shrugged, Rearden's wife and brother follow the destructive principle.
