How about not passing the health care bill... how about less spending. less tax hikes on investors, businesses, and individuals. Health care was our fastest job creators, we took a major step backwards.

Outcome and results, thats what Obama will be judged on. By the way, businesses create jobs, not goverment

Show where Obama hiked (net) taxes on investors, businesses, and individuals?

I have a link to almost 300 billion in tax cuts to these entities via the stimulus package. What do you have that shows that Obama gave us a net tax hike?

Health care is still growing extremely fast. Not only that, but giving 32 million Americans health coverage is giving private insurers 32 million more customers, increasing demand for pharm, and increasing demand for medical professionals and para-professionals. And increasing (dramatically) demand for administrative staff, etc.

Not sure how where you're getting that the medical field is shrinking...

All he wants to do is redistribute some of our money southward to make up for years upon years of a white man's greed leaving a world in need...




I never heard Wright say that; even though I quoted him in my book and say it in the audio version...

When I was asked earlier about, uh, the issue of coal. Uhhh, y'know, under my plan of a cap-and-trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket....
We would put a cap-and-trade system in place, eh, that is as aggressive, if not more aggressive, than anybody else's out there. So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can. It's just that it will bankrupt them because they're gonna be charged a huge sum for all that, uh, greenhouse gas that's being emitted.
Barack Hussein Obama
Editorial board meeting, San Francisco Chronicle
January 2008

The US economy for a long period of time was the engine of world economic growth. We were sucking in imports from all across the world financed by huge amounts of consumer debt. Because of the financial crisis, but also because that debt was fundamentally unsustainable, the United States is not going to be able to serve in that same capacity to that same extent.

Good read...

Central banks, by artificially expanding the supply of loanable funds in order to generate a temporary boom, drive down the market interest rate and distort these signals. At a lower interest rate, producers are inclined to borrow money and invest it in capital goods, on the assumption that consumers are saving to purchase more goods and services in the future. In fact, consumers are not saving; they are continuing to consume goods in the present.

Those artificially low interest rates eventually must rise, usually when the government raises the interest rate to combat the inflation it created by lowering it. As a result, the cost of the labor and capital needed to produce capital goods rises beyond what producers expected, so they begin to lay off workers and abandon capital investments. The end result is that producers have used up resources in order to produce future goods for which there is not a sustainable demand. This is what Hayek calls “malinvestment,” and it is the fundamental cause of the boom-bust cycle.

The longer the boom is maintained, the worse the bust will be. Mises likened the process to a builder who designs a house thinking he has more bricks than he does. The longer he continues to build, the harder it will be for him to redesign the building once he discovers how many bricks he actually has.
