How stupid do our officials have to be? Are people so ignorant of basic economic principles? Contracts and property rights are essential for capitalism and a free society.

They’re not stupid or ignorant. These people know exactly what they are doing.
I think it would be fair to say that many consider those of us who advocate for a return to limited government under law as kooks, cranks and eccentrics. The idea that the government itself is under the law (and God) is a foreign concept to many.
The moral and legal relativists who have no use for the Constitution and rule of law (other than as abstract academic concepts and answers to Trivial Pursuit) may soon discover that a government under the law is far more respectful of their pocketbooks than a government above the law. When a nation embraces moral and legal relativism, all bets are off.
Absolutely correct. The Obama posse intends to eliminate these rights on their way to constructing a socialist dictatorship.
