The Train Wreck!
Pretty fair assessment I’d say, if not a bit soft.
Good piece by Barone. I know I am tired of a cabal of ivy league communists that desire to “try out” their theory at the expense of the American people. I don’t wan’t to be a global citizen or a good little socialist.
Doing what has been tried over and over that always fails is not a sign of enlightenment.
These jokers couldn’t win a game of LIFE.
Above most all, I respect Michael Barone. He is however wrong.
Obama et al know precisely what they are doing and are proceeding as planned to prove they have been right for almost a hundred years and had their policies and ideology been followed, the Great Depression would have not lasted .
Then there is the transition. Transition is change with a sinister component. The transition from capitalism to socialism involves growing the government permanently and creating a legal framework for ending poverty by ending wealth. The transition is redistribution from producers to non producers.
” The very able economists in the incoming Obama administration “
‘Able’ economists??
By their fruits shall ye know them.....
Saul Alinsky never counted on the internet. That said, these thugs are determined SOBs.
There, fixed it for Mr. Barone.
Voters would have a better chance with a lottery ticket.
The government has no "resources." The only thing the government has is us, and the only way government can make things better is if things can be made better by ordering us around at the point of a gun. If you think that there's a shortage of people who are being ordered to do what they don't want to do with threats ultimately backed up by the threat of violence, well, vote for the Democrats. One warning though: it's never worked.
The problem is, our economy, the wealth we all enjoy (including the poor), is the result of thinking by millions and millions of well-educated, creative people. America is the biggest collection of people of this type ever assembled. The problem is, these people can't be motivated to think harder at gunpoint. It just won't work, never has worked, and never will worked.
All government can do is make things worse, and make those who complain disappear if they complain too effectively.
That's it, in a nutshell.

Nice cover for these criminals, Mike. The socialist programs that these socialists instituted long ago and recently (social security, medicaid, medicare, GM pensions, AIG insurance...socialization of risk...derivative scams, takeovers of large sectors of our economy, etc., etc.) coupled with most radical, deceitful collective of socialists that ever occupied the highest offices of our republic...are the cause of our consternation.
Stick to examining voting Barone. Moron.
I grow weary of the belief that voters are confused, ignorant, misled or even racist.
Common Americans know a con when they see one.
involves a protracted and pronounced contraction in economic activity and puts significant strains on government resources.”
The most unusual observance that God commanded the Israelites through Moses was the keeping of the year of jubilee. For most people this celebration occurred only once in their life time, and for many not even that, as it occurred only once every 50 years.
At this year of jubilee all Israelites who had sold themselves into slavery were set free, and all land that had been sold reverted to its original owner. This meant that no Israelite could ever be in permanent slavery; nor could any Israelite permanently lose his inheritance.

Barone is peddling disinformation.. it is exactly Cloward-Piven..
Exactly as Alinsky(and his minions) taught and planned..
The ONLY Anti-Alinsky(Cloward-Piven) tactic remains for the new Congress to De-Fund..
De-Fund and Under-Fund the federal government..
A meat ax MUST BE taken to the federal monster..
Reduce it draconially pay off the debt and call in much of the currency..
AND reduce any limits to State sovereignty.. cede ALL State lands to the States(ALL OF IT).. include any Parks and Monuments.. and go thru the federal budget with a dose of metaphorical Ex-Lax..
In 2012 stengthen the 10th amendment to increase State sovereignty..
Bottom line: the American people don’t want the American political system turned into the equivalent of The Chicago Way.
In other words, stop RULING US, OWeBama!!
And stop LECTURING US and calling us your ENEMY!
