Hmmm, the people in Iran are storming the streets fighting the oppression over there. Maybe, over here...just thinking.
“Obama to propose new consumer agency “
This is how he creates jobs. The goal is for the whole country to work for the government.
Let me guess: The consumer czar.
We won’t.
At least we won’t until millions are out of work, have lost much of their worldly treasures, lost hope for a promising future, lost their freedoms, lost their country and have hungry families to feed.
So, it might not be too long of a wait.....
obama’s car czar has had no problem getting them to agree on an electric car ready for production,...........it’s

It seems that if despotism came to be established in the democratic nations of our day, it would have other characteristics: it would be more extensive and milder, and it would degrade men without tormenting them ...The sovereign extends its arms over society as a whole; it covers its surface with a network of small, complicated, painstaking, uniform rules through which the most original minds and the most vigorous souls cannot clear a way to surpass the crowd; it does not break wills but it softens them, bends them, and directs them; it rarely forces one to act, but it constantly opposes itself to one's acting; it does not destroy, it prevents things from being born; it does not tyrannize, it hinders, compromises, enervates, extinguishes, dazes, and finally reduces each nation to being nothing more than a herd of timid and industrious animals of which government is the shepherd ...
--Alexis de Tocqueville
Someone pointed out to me that the government may be planning to further regulate all non-prescription food supplements and medications because every time they force a product to put warning labels, etc. they make money. This could be the beginning of a stealth tax campaign, starting with ZICAM for political reasons.
