Question

How much control should the US government have with regards to economic factors?

Answer 1

None.

Answer 2

Well, it plays a huge role in terms of monetary policy and the size of our money supply. It plays an important roll in regulating industries where monopolies might try to develop. It also plays a major role in making sure our food, medicine, and other consumer products are safe for our consumption. I would say those are all good things.
