Schwabe responds by stating that these wants are inconsistent and contradictory, as extending O.P.A. would require subsidies and deficit spending, which would not allow for reduced appropriations. Schwabe advocates for a return to free enterprise and the removal of bureaucratic control to increase production and reduce the need for borrowing money."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_6_30_0000-Price%20Controls,%201946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_30_0010_thumbnail.jpg "Inconsistencies in Government Policies")
