Like Health Care was not in crisis but we decided to screw up the economy and fix it anyway. (Anthem BC agent told me the other day they expect more business because of it.)

OR

Like the swine flu was not a crisis, but we MADE it one anyway..now we have to destroy what's left on the shelf. What's that costing? (The government is looking after you while the other one before had failed you, they said)

Like the oil crisis in the Gulf was such a man-made disaster we would never recover from for decades, so stop all drilling in the Gulf. (even though Bush had given incentives in cost of royalties to drill shallow..Clean Air Act Attack of 2007 and also royalties strongly levied)

Confused yet? Everyone stops really spending, for fear of more job loss, decline of the dollar-how much can we really print (then why can't I print some at home) where is this country going is the biggest fear! Will gold reach $2500? ;). Will they take your gold?? Meanwhile, everyone holds their breath, thinks about doing a budget and waits it out come next election !

Recently, growing National & World polls ask how many believe Obama is a Muslim? What is the media trying to push or suggest?

White House/Congress on Vacation(s). It's stressful they claim- but meanwhile Paul &(Nancy) Pelosi had sold some of their Apple holdings. They made a capital gain of between $1 million and $5 million. Pelosi got $102,161 in book royalties. The stress 2009-2010 must have been just awful!!

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.
