    It would be entirely pointless to provide any more examples...
    You haven't provided one, yet. All you've offered is:
    1. the unfalsifiable assertion that deficits are unsustainable on an arbitrarily long time scale.
    2. a point that market failures are inevitable; trivial in that the only evidence needed to sustain it is the observation that market failures have occurred, and...
    3. a demonstrably false claim that unemployment insurance is commercially sold nowhere in the world.

    ...because you wouldn't take them seriously, but discuss on and on - no matter what kind of evidence I provide.
    I've already cornered myself pretty well for your benefit. I'll accept any relation or model in the field of economics--or the whole of social sciences, for that matter--that generates falsifiable predictions with better accuracy than flipping a fair coin. Simple, no?
