The problems with the economy are the cumulative effect of nearly 20 years of bad policy. That being said, the Obama Administration is intent on driving us over the cliff at 110 MPH instead of 10 MPH. I finally got some of my liberal friends to recognize that each time we engage in another debt ceiling increase and another round of QE, our purchasing power is devalued.

It took a year of sounding like the Mad Hatter of Facebook for them to realize that I was right. I would post warnings that things were going to happen; sure enough, two to three weeks later, the headlines would echo my predictions.

If folks aren't ready for 2012 to be WORSE than 2011, they haven't been paying attention.

“If folks aren’t ready for 2012 to be WORSE than 2011, they haven’t been paying attention.”

That thought is why I’m optimistic that IF Obama runs in 2012, he won’t even carry Illinois.
