The worst of the worst have been elected to office, including a secretive madman in the highest position, who may not have been even legally qualified to hold that office. Idi Amin in a suit, vetted for office by a millionaire woman on her word alone.
The irony is that the "some animals are more equal than others" crowd will be the enemy both of the "entitled" army, and the workers with a real job and seething anger at the same time. The denoument will not be pretty --- for them.
We live in interesting times.
These Obama days make me long for the 1990s.
Clinton's economic (snd social obviously) policies were much more moderate than Obama’s are.
For one thing the population has changed greatly since then due to a huge integration boom. I know few of them personally who talk like O is Jesus.
With fiscal matters Clinton was terrified that massive national debts would cause inflation and raise interest rates and kill the economy, the Carter syndrome.
So he raised a few taxes and then cut a few and didnt try to massively grow government and he saw over big reductions in military spending. So things went pretty well.
But today the world economy is much different. The slowness of the world economy has not only made government look more appealing to those new voters, but it has allowed the gubment to create and borrow much more $$$ without having to worry about raising interest rates, to control inflation.
So Obama has had a near blank check from voters to borrow, borrow, borrow.
