weeklystandard.com — And what the president doesn't understand--or, to be more charitable, refuses to acknowledge--about free markets, the economy, and competition could fill a book, or at least an Obama speech. The economic growth he sees was produced, in part, by cash-for-clunkers and the first-time homebuyers tax credit.

The only thing the current Democrats in the Senate have to do with Vietnam is that some of them were actually fighting in that war instead of draft-dodging like the Repugs.

Mah2cent is right on the money... I agree with him 100 percent... I still think leaving the gold standard was the worst move this country has ever made...

I'm sure you don't know anything about Keynes or Keynesian except for what you read on Mises.org.

@Lemethe.Can you support your assertion that Keynes models have been proven wrong - Please specify which models. Also please elaborate on Keynes' assumption that 'wants are not unlimited'.If as Mackenai suggests, that you're a fan of the chicago school than your criticism of assumptions is absolutely laughable - Friedman and co have a paraded around the idea that assumptions don't matter.

Yeah, between the two parties the Dems definitely have their heads further up their asses. /swtf are you smoking? Republicans are the ones that think rape is good for business and a good health care policy is to have sick people die quickly.

The government is best at one thing, giving people money that don't deserve it. At least private organizations only stay up as long as we pay the bills, government has no such inclination since they can create money and act like everything is as it should be.
