But no, we’ll repeat history and still never learn from it.

Did we die and go to a conservative heaven?
“What is the world coming to? Pat Dollard reports the Russian leader warned the US against adopting socialism because it doesn’t work: Russian Prime Minister Vladamir Putin has said the US should take a lesson from the pages of Russian history and not exercise excessive intervention in economic activity and blind faith in the states omnipotence.
In the 20th century, the Soviet Union made the states role absolute, Putin said during a speech at the opening ceremony of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. In the long run, this made the Soviet economy totally uncompetitive. This lesson cost us dearly. I am sure nobody wants to see it repeated.[Snip.]”

Priceless! "You wake up one morning in the once greatest free nation on Earth to find the sun rising from the west, your government spending trillions of dollars to take over major industries, an empty suit with no experience and raised by Marxists voted into the White House, and the leader of the evil empire communist nation of Russia advising your country to turn away from socialism because it doesn't work........You have just entered...into...the Twilight Zone".

Now that’s ironic. When Vladimir Putin thinks you’re too much of a socialist, you’re wayyy too much of a socialist.
The oh-so-powerful US has just been told by the head of the neo-Soviet Union that it is too socialist, and has had its administration scolded by Hamid Karzai, president of tiny, backwater Afghanistan.
We are so screwed....

Russian Prime Minister Vladamir Putin has said the US should take a lesson from the pages of Russian history and not exercise "excessive intervention in economic activity and blind faith in the state's omnipotence".
Sounds like the "peace offensive" is on again. The sneaky lying enemy bastard took over private enterprises and jailed the owners. Anyway, thanks Ernest.

Russia is going downhill fast. They must now get back in a mode where US companies and banks spend tons of money to keep them afloat like happened during the seventies and eighties.
Putin and his gang where tough when oil stayed high. Now they wonder if they will make it through the next few years. Time to get back in bed with the west. I don't trust the bastards period.

I never thought I’d see the day where I’d be willing to trade our president for Putin. Will wonders never cease?

And, who would think that the South Korean Won has appreciated so much in comparison to the falling Dollar, Yen, and Euro, that Hyundai's car prices had to be raised and are no longer the price leaders in America. BTW, Hyundai's plant is the only one in America actually hiring people instead of letting them off.

Putin is well aware that if the USA collapses Russia will be in horrible shape.

Obama's "blind faith in the states omnipotence..........says it all right there.
