Laisez faire was more phillosophical than a market practice. Sam Rayburn's anti-trust and populist economic legislation durring WWI and its subsequent success, 1929, and Lyndon Johnson and John F. Kennedy's economic booms all speak volumes for Keynesian economics and against laisez-faire. The invisible hand is invisible because it is not there.

I don't think this ytmnd is advocating laissez-faire so don't downvote it for that. Thanks for this YTMND btw, I thought you missed an obvious joke until I paid attention to the song. Very clever.

Oops, it does say "speaking words of wisdom.." in the song. Still, it's a very good and clever YTMND regardless of your opinion.

This doesn't have anything to do with my opinions I just made it because I thought it would be slightly clever. Don't jump all over me because you do or don't agree with the philosophy, that isn't the point.
