That quote is from here:
The message of Meltdown is clear: Government intervention in the economy is always part of the problem, but never part of the solution.

If the problem is an invading army, robbing, raping, torturing, and murdering, even mass murdering innocent people - then some defensive power that is more powerful than that criminal one is either powerful enough to solve that problem or that problem goes on and on into perpetuity.
But, if you read the link, the subject there, in that link, is a mixed bag, an ambiguous mixture of this and that, without any clear enemy in sight, and without any clear solution to that mysterious problem.
I think the most serious problem is this propensity to confuse actual people with actual things. "The government", if is not plans hatched by people, and then actions performed by people, government by the people, in essences, then "The Government" is nothing, a myth, a phantom, a trick, smoke, mirrors, fraud, the velvet glove, etc.
The government didn't do it; please know this, if by "The Government" the idea is to point to some thing, and while pointing to that thing, all the power in the world can be focused on that thing and all that power is wasted on that thing, since no power on earth can make that thing anything more than a thing, it has no thoughts, it has no capacity to act, to be alive, to be anything but a thing.
If "The Government" is "the people"; then the people who plan on and then follow through with the plan to injure innocent people for profit are, by those thoughts, and by those acts, themselves criminals, and those people, those specific people, for those specific thoughts and actions, make "the people's government" a criminal one.
Don't expect the paper they generate, so as to cover their crimes, to be written truths, accurate, and able to empower their victims in any way. If you do that, if you think that, if you hold those lies up as truths, you ensure your further victimization, by that confidence scheme acted out against you in printed form.
So the power of the people, once that power is focused against the power that plans on injuring and then does injure innocent people, by law, or by any means whatsoever, will be the power, by any name, that defends against those bad people who do those bad things.
How far did I get from the quote?
If "government intervention" in "the economy" is a problem, whose economy is it, and who is running this government?
The last guys who ran this government were people. The current guys who run this government are people. Those people represent themselves and other people. Their plans are being followed to fruition. From their viewpoints, please get this straight, they are winning - what is the problem?
Do you think they will confess? Do you think that they may pay people to write things that cover their tracks, make them look inept, incapable of solving simple problems, powerless as it were?
Don't throw me into the briar patch.
