    Exactly, the US didn’t become a dominant economic power by leveraging markets, it’s was done through massive state planning and command economy.

      All economies are planned. The only question is who does the planning.

      Do you leave that to a bunch of MBAs focused on quarterly profits, or a bureaucracy charged with looking for a state’s long term interests?
