Joseph Haslag, economics professor at the University of Missouri–Columbia and executive vice president of the Show-Me Institute, explains in this radio commentary for KBIA 91.3 FM in Columbia that real economic stimulus comes from thousands of little things, a wide array of market actions and decisions that can't be anticipated or controlled by a centralized plan.
