Bolshevik Ben strikes again.
I’m guessing it’s his Dad.
My late maternal grandmother was of the Depression Generation. She worshipped FDR.
My mom is of the (early) sixties generation. She worshipped JFK but her mom clearly influenced her.
She firmly believes that anyone who’s made a lot of money in this life had to somehow take it from those less well off and that enlightened government can solve all the problems of the world.
Dunno what they taught Economics students at Columbia U. when Ben was going there, but it must have been Keynes all the way.
He commits a rather serious error. He credits the presidents with spending when it’s Congress who writes and passes the budget. Those Clinton surplusses were actually Congressional Republican surplusses.
Our current mess is because Bush43 enabled the RINOs and the Dems to jack up spending in order to support the WOT. They threatened the WOT and he caved and passed huge deficits. Now this is the status quo in Washington and it’s up to the TEA party supporters to restore fiscal responsibility in Washington.
Crediting Clinton for the Republican surplusses is like crediting Obama for the TEA party.
I thought so.
Socialists ALWAYS want to use YOUR MONEY.
