Right you are Ray! These leftists are grabbing power - buying votes of the illiterate and the unionized with money they either print from thin air or borrow from the Chinese as if there is no payback. The real tragedy is that the answer is so simple - as Reagan said. Not easy - but simple. Get Government out of the way of American free enterprise.This economy could turn around on a dime - literally- with the right leadership, focused on limiting the role of the Federal government. The current Democrat socialist experiment is clearly a failure - and hopefully will educate a new generation (those that don't know about Jimmy Carter -the "misery index" President) on the folly of socialism. This Obama/Chicago outfit is particularly dangerous because they have no regard for the law or even giving the impression of following it. Except of course when they selectively cite law to baffle those who read only the headlines -- such as with the Arizona Immigration law.We must clear the Congress in November and do all that is required to prevent a lame duck session from further subverting the will of the American People. Bar the doors to the Chambers of Congress if necessary - but we must stop these criminals from poisoning the Well of Freedom any further.
