No, I think Bush and Cheney are right. We’re headed for a Great Depression and extreme measures are called for... that’s just the way I think it is. After things have recovered, then I’m sure we can head back to normal territory...

How will we recover from three or four trillion dollars of debt?

[lowbridge]

We’re headed for a Great Depression and extreme measures are called for

Those "extreme measures" OUGHT to be free market principles. Not the other way around.

[DB]

Extreme measures that in the long run will only make things much worse.

There’s a bigger picture than just tomorrow.

Head back to normal territory? You expect the government to hand back any powers, or reverse any changes? Obama is going to catch this and run with it.

Bush and Cheney are socialists (Compassionate Conservatives), socialists think of socialist(compassionate) solutions. The best thing they could have done was keep their filthy mitts off of the economy.

What prolonged the great depression was Government intervention. We need less, not more.

When has the government taken away give aways? Once you start with that, it's a killer to shut it off. Someone will always have an excuse to keep it going "just a little bit longer." And 30 years later...

I see you traveled to this website from another star. Probably the star of statism. You’re obviously a stranger to capitalism. It shows.

"I’m sure we can head back to normal territory"

Yup, just like we did after FDR.

Breathtakingly naive.

“After things have recovered, then I’m sure we can head back to normal territory...”

Right. And I have a bridge in Ketchikan, Alaska to sell you.

Once granted, how many times has the government rolled back its own authority?

“No, I think Bush and Cheney are right. We’re headed for a Great Depression and extreme measures are called for... that’s just the way I think it is”

A Great Depression is exactly what this country and the world needs.

[stevio]

Normal territory appears to be Socialism, at best.

The policies of FDR excaberated the Great Depression, they didn't alleviate them.

Same Old New Deal?

Moreover, Obama's offering to build roads and dig ditches in all 50 states in the bid to create "jobs" is a joke. How many insurance adjusters, car salesmen, retail managers, and real estate agents are going to sign up to build roads (or even know how?)

This isn't the 1930's, where the majority of Americans were blue collar.

It may created some jobs..............for Illegal Aliens from Mexico that will start pouring over the border again. That is probably Obama's intent after all.

Adolph Hitler did pretty much this same sh!t. did you agree with his national socialism?
