We need sweeping libertarian reforms in this country.

Maybe it's time someone let Obama know that his Keynesian antics are making it worse.

I'm all for it, but easier said than done! The problem I am seeing is that Libertarians tend to get lumped together with Republicans, or what tends to pass for the Republican party. Plus, the people that DO get out and vote would actually have to think for themselves, and not just vote for a candidate because they are A) the lesser of two evils, B) either has a D or and R in front of their name, or C) they buy into the spin delivered my one of the partisan media outlets. Then there is the issue of those (and there are FAR to many of them) that don't get out and vote!

Mega Banks rule the world. They ask Big Ben for billion of fresh crisp 100 dollar bills they get it- Does not matter what they will do with it - they get it. Our FED is a panderer and enabler of bad business practices.

The mire the economy is stuck in is because the bailout/Stimulus and QE funds went into the hands of those who have no clue what it takes to resussitate an economy and create jobs.

Barry was trolling the hood near Columbia trying to score some more coke on the day they were explaining this.

3 years of half implemented Neo-Keynesian applications are working, just barely at the moment to turn back 8 years of Friedman disaster policies which drove the country to the brink of collapse. It will take some time to turn around that which was nearly destroyed.

Another math challenged poster repeating the same old left wing talking points.

Democrats took over Congress in 2007, so what 8 years then are you referring to and what policies?

STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR THE INCOMPETENT DEMOCRATS!!
