Dr. Thomas Sowell telling the truth that Barney Frank and others in Washington involved in this scandal don’t want to hear!
Exactly, and Dr. Sowell has been saying this right along.
Though the RATS ignore him they know he’s right.
Another truth: ethanol subsidies in the U.S. lead to a worsening of worldwide starvation.
I couldn't agree more, had he been a liberal he'd have had one years ago. :)
Nicely said. This is a familiar idea, but seldom so well and concisely stated.
"In reality, everybody and his brother saw it coming and said so-- including yours truly in the Wall Street Journal of May 26, 2005. As far away as London, The Economist magazine warned about the danger. So did many American publications and individuals. The problem was that politicians refused to listen. They were fixated on the magic number of home ownership and votes they could gain, or lose, therefore they feigned being oblivious to the economic interconnections that Russian economists saw long ago and from far away."
At least that's the way I see it. He's right regardless.
That’s good, RQSR! :-)
Or.....
Perhaps Omoslem and the Democrats understand this perfectly, but are just using the Cloward-Piven strategy (overload the welfare state) wherever it can be applied, to sink the USA.
Handing out free houses to borrowers with no chance of repayment, and doing this for 3 decades, seems like a delightful way to start.
Way to go, Barney Fwank. Congratulations, Omoslem. And child-brothel cheers to ACORN.
The politicians were most likely making money under the table too.
Wow!
Is that ever a true depiction of those two turkeys.
“Nobel Economics prize”
Question: Why do we have to honor and laud the Nobel Prize? Why not make our own price and give it to people who really deserve it. Cater, Obama, Gore for “peace”? Come on.
The left always begins its utopian schemes with the assumption that economic production is a given and constant, and no matter what they do to redistribute the bounty, productivity will remain unchanged. There is no consideration for the preservation of incentive; the goose that lays the golden egg. When free people no longer choose to take the risk or invest the capital, the coveted bounty disappears and there is nothing left but an all powerful centralized government with no device at its disposal to motivate productivity other than force and fear. Then it’s 1984.
Don’t knock the other Nobel Prizes. They are picked by scholars in their field. It’s the Peace Prize which is chosen by politicians and has become politicized.
****The left always begins its utopian schemes****
The left does its best to package and sell Utopian dreams, but it is a classic bait and switch. They know that what they are doing will bring middle class America to its collective knees. That is what they want, to bring an end to American Manifest Destiny.
We are the leading nation in bringing about freedom to the rest of the world, “A shining light on a hill” as President Reagan called us. The middle class when unfettered by many layers of stifling governmental regulations and disincentives thrives with so much wealth as to give us power to overcome the enemies of freedom.
The left only sees control as victory. They have exchanged a glass ceiling for a class ceiling. As you allude to it becomes total control or total chaos. The one thing that binds so many leftist organizations is love of the creature rather than the creator. This is why they abandon human achievement and replace it with control of humans.
This love of creature is founded in fear of failure to preserve that which is, because that which is is familiar and comfortable. There is no allowing of any sacrifice in any way of the earth and her creatures, to the extent that the development of human endeavors automatically takes a back seat, whether or not they have potential to move us further along a path that preserves human longevity and greater numbers which gives us the greater potential to eventually colonize beyond our current potential and therefore ensuring the continued survival and growth of humans.
We must thrive to survive even if a few landmarks and species must be sacrificed. Why should a person who’s whole philosophy is based on the expectation of change object to stirring the pot a little.
Does BO hate honest Americans?
