Mouths Of Babes

Joe Biden admits that the administration underestimated and “misread” the economy.

The worst part is, they did not misread their own intent to suppress the free market system in the biggest power grab in US history. Nor did they misread their flaming desire to turn American into a socialist state.

Peggy Noonan On The Two Great Fears Of America

This is a very good article by Peggy Noonan. She asserts that there are two great fears among the American public right now.

The first fear is that the current administration will kill or cripple the free market system that made America great.

The second fear is that the number of takers will one day outweigh the number of givers in our society.

Both are viable fears, given the current climate and the current administration.

Ms. Noonan also wonders if the doublespeak so prevalent in government today is a byproduct of the speaker not being able to help themselves, or could it be purposefully done in order to confuse the masses.

Good question.

Survey Says There's A Large Percentage Of Idiots

77% of Americans say they prefer a free market economy instead of one run by the government.
Know what that means? That there is a large percentage of idiots out there. Let me explain.

Obama won with much more than 23% of the vote. That means that there are lots of people who a) voted for Obama and b) prefer a free market economy. Those people had no idea what Obama stands for. They voted for style. They don’t care about substance when they vote.

They are idiots.

The survey proves that by the fact that 24% who answered the survey claim to prefer a free market economy yet also prefer socialism over capitalism.

Thanks to all of you who fall into the group who can be classified as idiots. You are directly responsible for this country moving towards socialism with all due speed. Hope you enjoy being taxed at ever-increasing rates while being told how to live your lives at every turn by Big (Obama) Brother.

Tax Fraud Timmy Doesn't Understand How The Economy Works

Tax Fraud Timmy declares that the free market will not fix the economy and only the government can save the world.

"We came through a period where people borrowed too much and we let our financial system take on much too much risk," Geithner said. "And the consequences of those choices, made over years, were a huge boom. And that boom, the air is now coming out of that and that's causing enormous damage."

I wonder if he realizes that people borrowed too much because of government interference, not the free market. I wonder if he understands that the reason the financial markets took on too much risk is that government, not the free market, demanded they do so. Laws were passed forcing companies to do what they did not want to do, in effect nullifying the free market. What we have today is the result.
