That is the part which worries me most. We basically lost this and a host of other issues (in the public eye) as soon as the largest volley of corporate welfare went flying. People were given the shock treatment of seeing “trillions” as a common number in the news - hundreds of billions to this bank, trillions here, and now hundreds of more billions to the automakers. How successful are we going to be in trying to raise alarms over mere tens of billions spent on “providing poor people with health coverage”? If perception really is reality, bend over and lube up.
Obama has been handed almost every ingredient necessary to destroy America. All of the precursors for a socialist reinvention of the nation (from expanded executive powers and down) were stupidly put in place because of immature impulses to “solve” temporary problems. We got screwed by pragmatism, high-spending, and governing to the center, like always.
The cruelest twist will be the Main Street GOPers (who the establishment fought the most for) giving “bipartisan” legitimacy to the whole mess.
