All levels of our government are engaged in rampant and escalating treason against the founding principals of the nation.

5.7% GDP growth 4th quarter, income rising faster than rising spending, lifting the savings rate to a hair under 5%, manufacturing up, inventories rebuilding, profits coming in 17% above analyst estimates...

Reports of the death of the US economy are greatly exaggerated. They always are.

Don't get me wrong, policy is poor on the fiscal side and in proposed taxes, spending we don't need etc. Monetary policy has been entirely sound and correct, however, and the adjustments of American business to the recession were thorough, efficient, swift, downright merciless. And entirely effective.

In the long run, betting against the US economy, like betting against the US military, is for losers.

Our government has taken upon itself the task of picking winners and losers, instead of letting the free market decide, and as a result we all lose. From car companies to financial institutions, the long arm of government has grabbed freedom by the neck, seeking to decide who gets paid what and how big companies and banks can grow.

Profound.

It really isn’t a “free fall” when someone is intentionally and continuously pushing it down the next flight of stairs.

Our accelerating descent into a command-and-control economy with government pulling the strings is taking its toll.

It's called the Cloward-Piven Strategy

Our government is threatening businesses right now, so it’s not surprising.

But remember: a lot of these businesses helped get Obama elected....do they regret it now? Bet they thought when he said “Hope and Change” and “We’re going to redistribute the wealth” they thought he meant someone else’s.....
