Government Central Planning Fails—Free People Create Order On Our Own.

"Politicians love to make plans for us. But the best of life happens when politicians just leave us alone.

Economists call the idea “spontaneous order.”

Just as a school of fish needs no leader, most of us-in most of life figure things out on our own.

Even in my hometown New York City, where authoritarian politicians constantly impose new rules, spontaneous order is occasionally allowed.

A perfect example: Central Park.

When government ran the park, it was dirty, dangerous and the grass was dead.

Politicians let go a little, allowing a nonprofit conservancy [disclosure: I’m a director], manage Central Park.

The Conservancy does a better job. Now the park is clean and safe.

The video gives more examples of spontaneous order."
