| How's that false ideology working out for you, Obankrupt? You're a smart guy, is it time to pull the plug on all that crap you learned when you were younger, or is it still W's fault With the disappointingly soft jobs report for July, and a faltering recovery overall, is Team Obama getting ready for some sort of new, liberal-left, Keynesian, big-bang stimulus package? Will they be desperate to "do something"? Oh, they will do something alright. I just want to know how much good money will be thrown after bad. Which constituency are you planning on propping up next? How do you plan on paying for all this debt when we have no room left in the GDP? An actual link input... |

| #8 Populist class warfare rhetoric Complete disregard for sound fiscal policy Taxation Hyperinflation Argentina? Nope, the U S of A. Give it another six months and the money markets cannot hold the excess dollars without a drop in exchange rates. The only thing saving us from hyperinflation is the fact the banks that received the TARP money are not putting it out in the money supply. They are reinvesting it overseas with zero risk. |

| #7 a leftist admitting that they were wrong about something, and what are the odds of that happening? They'd rather drag us all into the pit of Hell before they do that. To the last, I will grapple with thee... from Hell's heart, I stab at thee! For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee! |

| #6 I fear we are on the brink of an economic calamity the likes of which none of us has ever seen. We went over the brink about 3 years ago. We are now sliding down into the economic calamity. Smells like 1931-1932 all over again, from my reading of history & economics. The bailouts, stimulus and jive talk from financiers & politicians have slowed and obscured the slide downhill a little bit. |

| #5 #1 Oldspook "They need to read Hayek and Hazlitt." AH, OS, but that would entail, ultimately , a leftist admitting that they were wrong about something, and what are the odds of that happening? |

| #1 Can't push a rope. The only way to generate economic demand is to let people have and keep more of their money, so they will invest and spend it, and to get government out of the way and stop burdening the job creators with regulations and taxes like Obamacare. They need to read Hayek and Hazlitt. |
