The one thing that was needed for big government socialists to transform our economy was the complicity of the population.
This economic mess is the BLANK CHECK that big governments nanny-staters having been waiting for for decades. First they got their President--and now that President has the willingness of the people (the most crucial element) to make that transformation.
I truly believe that this "crisis" was planned some years ago and manipulated to occur right before the election. We've been had.
