Truth?
Gramm is not feeling the impact of what his actions have wrought. To the contrary, he and his wife benefitted quite nicely from them.
And the folks he calls whiners? I can't imagine what someone would be whining because the price of heating oil doubled in one year. Or that the value of their take-home pay is steadily being devalued by the Fed and Congress to bail out the culprits in the subprime fiasco.
You really need to stop and think how your comments are evaluated by those who are suffering economically as a result of the actions of corrupt politicials like Gramm.
Whining applies here. Too many people are whining. They have gotten the results they voted for.
Heating oil too expensive??? Too bad—this is a result of the refusal to utilize our own domestic resources and ensure that an adequate supply of oil increases with the increase in the population.
Take home pay value dropping??? Too bad—this is the result of decades of runaway government social spending, which is the result of too many whiners with their hands out demanding the government take care of them. The government prints more money to cover its’ spending, the value of the dollar drops.
Again, the people are getting what they have asked and voted for. They are whiners. Phil Gramm was right....just not politically correct.
