The GOP ..................God's way of showing you how NOT to run an economy.


Tisk, tisk,........ so much education to do and so little time.

It's not the job of the gubmint to run the economy. Unless of course you can point that out to me somewhere in the Constitution,......maybe I missed that part.

Gubmint uphold the rule of law? Yes. Run the economy,.....maybe in Cuba, not here.


Gosh, I thought that the actions by our gubmint leaders, taxation, spending, etc. could effect the economy. Please explain why that is not so.


Please re-read that Dave. All of those things you mentioned do indeed affect the economy. Specifically, many of those things are the root causes of our problems. No where did I say that gubmint actions do not affect the economy. The gubmint's job in the economy is to protect the sanctity of contracts and to enforce the rule of law. Not to be purchasing bank assets, controlling prices, wages, providing purchase incentives, exc. All of those actions have unintended consequences when using someone else's money.
