As much as I hate to say “I told you so...”

Go ahead.

Makes me wonder where we would be if Gore had won. Maybe the 2000 R congress would have blown it anyway.

Unfortunately what you listed is not altogether unthinkable by these cretin.

Neither Barack Hussein Obama Sr. or Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. saw a tax they did not like.

From: “East Africa Journal” (July 1965) by Barrack H. Obama

In an article called “The Problem with our Socialism”

“Certainly there is no limit to taxation if the benefit derrived from public services by the society measures up to the cost in taxation which they have to pay.”

“Theoretically there is nothing to stop the government from taxing 100 percent of income so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed”

Now where does that leave us? Backed against the wall, a fight to the end.

Heard Bernanke’s speech from London. If there were a ‘run’, who did it? Who has that kind of money? Sovereign wealth fund? The FBI knows every transaction over $10K. The public has a right to know even if it could start a run. (Didn’t hurt Schumer over Indymac, did it?)
