Milton Friedman was right. You can only keep up the illusion of prosperity for only a short time with all that borrowing, printing and squandering of capital with government spending. Also if your regulatory agencies initiate an anti capitalist, anti carbon energy crusade with endless rules regulations and taxes, the private sector slows down considerably. Obama and Bernacke have done more to harm America than any two individuals ever to serve in high office.
The Republicans will take over Congress in November and be promptly blamed for the recession.
When the crash comes, the masses need to take back all the wealth the bureaucrats stole from the compliant workers. Leave the bureaucrats to scrape the bottom of the barrel.
