Not content with losing half a billion in loan money to Solyndra, and probably losing billions more on other dubious 'green' manufacturing loans tp the likes of Fisker, Tesla, etc. , Ol Barry now wants to set up a gov't agency whose only job will be to pick winners and losers in the manufacturing portion of our economy.

I can already picture GM producing the American electric equivelent of the Lada. The only thing Obama has learned in his failed first three years as POTUS is if you fail at something, the only solution is more gov't intereference and taxpayer $. And the MSM derides those who call him a socialist, lol, what else would you call him?

I wonder when we get to here about a 5 year plan.

"Commerce Secretary John Bryson, giving the position cabinet-level influence for the first time. His co-chair will be National Economic Council Director Gene Sperling."

A couple of guys with zero manufacturing experience, or more generally, producing anything of value.

THey do policies and studies but no work. Only burdening work.

Let’s just call it “Gosplan.”

I can’t wait to stand in line for hours for some toilet paper and crappy fish sticks.

"co-chaired by the Commerce Department Secretary and the director of the White House National Economic Council.

This is going to go very well, our commerce and economy is in such good shape with their leadership already.

Man-yu-facturing is poor code speak for one thing.

“The common good before self-interest.[178]”

Prepare for the coming PhonyCare. See my tagline:

As I’ve said before, they’re planning to fine the living daylights out of everyone else. And those that have “insurance” may think they are not paying a fine, but really are already paying fines, through higher premiums.

“if you fail at something, the only solution is more gov’t interference and taxpayer $.”

This is, in essence, the Marxist Hegelian Dialectic. Government creating a problem requiring a government solution, always moving incrementally toward Marxism.

Great! Now we can have some really cool Five Year Plans! Awesome.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I would call him a Fascist! To the best of my understanding he seems to fit the definition offered by Benito Mussolini and he knows how to pose like Mussolini...I doubt that he will ever make a train run on time though, probably make it run off the tracks.

There are of course a lot of other names I could call him but I don’t want to be banned.

Made in America, my arse. When the coward says America he means USA, Mexico and Canada.
They should say made in the U.S.A.

Oboma and the rest of the predators and parasites in the swamp are globalists. They get permission to run for office and they are loyal to power & money.

They will do ANYTHING to ensure they have a seat at the NWO and that means selling the USA,the Constitution and the People into slavery.
