Comments on: Open Letter to Congress http://www.intellectualconservative.com/2009/06/19/open-letter-to-congress/ Conservative and Libertarian Intellectual Philosophy and Politics Wed, 08 Feb 2012 23:00:53 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Mickey G http://www.intellectualconservative.com/2009/06/19/open-letter-to-congress/comment-page-1/#comment-78748 Mickey G Sun, 21 Jun 2009 13:50:33 +0000 http://www.intellectualconservative.com/?p=6207#comment-78748 All of these concerns are being hidden by a complicit media. Even to the point of cooked polls. For example today's NYT polling on healthcare trumpets public wants single payer, is willing to pay extra taxes for it, and really is not strongly interested in cost control. Interesting but was it a reasonable poll? Probably not sample size of 895 is below that required to make strong inferences. Beyond that why ask those earning less than the level that pays federal income taxes if they would pay additional taxes to support the program? Of course they would and 100% increase on zero is still zero! I am concerned about the tag that folks keep putting on the Omessiah of socialist since the programs he is proposing meet the facist public/private model rather than the true socialist model. Hence Government Motors is a government/private corporation with many more to follow. Well, the public voted for change they could believe in and received change for changes sake replected in weak planning, knee jerk reactions to issues, and a clear commitment to those policies, such as making home loans to those with no hope of paying them back, that brought us to the financial "crisis". We are being destroyed by a flood of undereducated and culturally dangerous illegal immigrants that the Omessiah is rushing to legalize, make into citizens, and bring their pool of relatives to the American welfare state with free education, healthcare, retirement, food stamps, welfare payments etal. By the way it appears the administration also wants to open the borders even further so say goodbye to jobs for our own domestic undereducated class and significant pay reductions for the educated members of our society. For a quick review of where things are going review the history of currency devaluation and geometric levels of inflation seen in South America. The printing presses are already working overtime printing greenbacks. All of this is making Ayn Rand look like a prophet instead of an author. Who is John Galt and when will he drop out of society and let the welfare drones fend for themselves? All of these concerns are being hidden by a complicit media. Even to the point of cooked polls.

Obama is intentionally bankrupting the US because he is still stuck in the Keynesian morass. It's a wonder that the public isn't aware that Conservatives are the one's interested in "change" because they allow it to happen, rather than trying to force unworkable programs on an economy and environment where they won't work.
