Throughout history religious zealots have preached that in order to get to the afterlife you must believe their version of truth. It doesn't matter if they are christian, jew or muslim
Just curious as to why do you think some people still believe in voodoo economics.
0bama believes in it. When 0bama spoke to the benefits billions of dollars in earmarks, back in March of '09:
"You know, when you give it to public companies -- public entities like fire departments, and if they are seeking taxpayer dollars, then I think all of us can feel some comfort that the state or municipality that's benefitting is doing so because it's going to trickle down and help the people in that community."

Trillions given to Wall Street, foreign companies and failed auto execs.
And what does the inept and immature President do? Blame everyone but himself.
Right because the wars started under him. Bush wasn't President during the HEIGHT of oil prices, the dollar was strong in 2007/2008, and unemployment was low in 2008. Oh and Bush didn't pass TARP.
That all sounds so quaint and fairy tale-esque. You forgot the part where the company holds Mississippi and Ohio hostage during the decision making process, and both states trip all over themselves to accommodate this company. They settle in Ohio because it offered billions in tax giveaways and is allowing a housing complex to be destroyed via "Eminent Domain" so the car company can build a garden in front of their complex.
From there they offer slightly decent pay and push for non-union workers. After a few months they decide to "downsize" because Executive pay isn't high enough, oh and Ohio we need a few billion more to build a parking garage. You wouldn't want us to pack up and leave to Mississippi or Mexico...would you...WOULD YOU?
You do realize that every politician for the last 100 years to be elected in Toledo is a Democrat? I lived in Toledo for a good 10 years or so. It's like 70% Democrats. They're all over the freakin' place.
So is it your contention that Democrats believe in trickle down economics?
BTW, Flint Michigan was going to get the Jeep Liberty plant when Toledo made this deal. Drive through Toledo then go up I-75 a ways and look at Flint. Toledo clearly did the right thing.
