When an economy is in trouble, the way to turn things around is for government to reduce taxes, reduce regulations, get out of the way, and let the free market go to work. Pumping fiat money into the system, or "priming the pump" as the Democrats call it, is like being stuck in quick sand, and then deciding the best way to get out is to dive deeper. Could you imagine if I came home and told my wife that the best way out of our economic difficulties is to get a bunch of credit cards, and max those babies out?
The incompetent idiocy of the left is so ridiculous that the statements these morons make boggle the mind. Nancy Pelosi, during a moment she was not riding around on her broom, said that food stamps and unemployment insurance will grow the American economy.
Are you kidding me? And this is the third person in line for the presidency? Hell, using her mentality, we should all work to get laid off, and get on the entitlement programs, right? According to her, if we were all dependent on the government, and unemployed, our economy would be vibrant!
Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago President Charles Evans even actually goes so far to say that we haven't gone into enough debt. He is claiming that we are in a liquidity trap and that more stimulus is needed. He is even indicating that we need inflation! Never mind the private sector, you know, the part of our society that creates jobs and wealth. . . he would rather us go deeper into our economic hell-hole! And the scary part is, there is a lot of small-minded individuals out there that actually believe that tripe.
Fact is, there is plenty of money out there, and it is currently being sat on by businesses. They are refusing to spend their back-up funds, and for good reason. If business owners weren't handcuffed by the federal government, and nervous about the uncertainty of our financial system, and the government's intrusion into it, they'd be willing to put that money to good use in the pursuit of profits. But when the economic environment is in turmoil, why should they invest it? Why risk your stash if the government has designed the system to take it from you through punitive taxation? Eliminate the capital gains tax, lower corporate taxes, reduce fees and regulations, and those companies will risk their money - but not until then.
Fact is, everything that the federal government touches fails, or is filled with deception and straight out lies (and then fails). Social Security is failing, the FBI is investigating Obama's health care budget advisor, organized crime is deeply involved in government health care corruption, Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano is misleading the public regarding the immigration issue, Mexican drug cartels have sent a message to Washington that the U.S. no longer has control of the borders, as a result of the Democrat's weak policies against Islamism the Muslim Brotherhood has declared war on the U.S., judges are circumventing the constitution and are trying to make the U.S. Congress irrelevant by taking it upon themselves to illegally change the UCMJ by declaring that the military must drop the "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy, and now under the watch of worldwide progressivism we have 420 of the worlds largest banks demanding a one-world currency!
Meanwhile, as the Democrats accuse the GOP of being in the pocket of big corporations, it is the Democrats that are bailing out those big corporations, and are allowing many of the big corporations to dodge the mandates of their "health care reform." So who, might I ask, is really in the pocket of big business?
In the end, the liberal left is launching us toward the slavery of socialism, governmental control, and the radical views of a few hard left politicians like Obama and his gang of idiots. One of the ways they are accomplishing this is through partnering with the U.N.'s radical agenda, while pushing through their oppressive health care reform through the courts as legal challenges keep mounting.
The people, however, are not fools. We understand that the Democrats do not understand the economy, or how to govern. This is one of the reasons GOP candidates are currently out-raising their Democrat counterparts in campaign funds, why Obama supporters are defecting to the Republican Party, and why the Tea Party is making such a huge impact on this coming election. People are realizing that big government and the labor unions have been conspiring against the people, and if we don't return to a constitutional government, we will cease to be a nation.
