Re: Obama Supporter: How Do You Look Self in Mirro
Jermyn, The Great Depression lasted so long BECAUSE of government intervention. Unemployment INCREASED under FDR. He spent 10% of the GDP. The Depression didn't end until WWII. Mobilization changed that b/c of the war. BO is proposing to spend 25% of GDP! Why has unemployment increased under BO when he spent stimulus money to "create" jobs? Where are those infrastructure, shovel-ready jobs?
Jermyn, you are smarter than this. How do you get out of debt, do you personally try to spend more than you make to get out of debt? Its simple economics 101. What applies to you personally applies to our nation. The real danger is we are going to devalue the American brand so badly that one day this house of cards will come crashing down and we will have more than a Great Depression on our hands.
