After the impeachment of Bill Clinton and the 2000 election results fallout, the left's completely unreasonable treatment of conservatives created a poisionous political climate that we haven't recovered from. Within days of winning the 2000 election comparisons were being made between George W. Bush and Hitler ...
Beyond that, neither political party comes close to offering any solutions that even approach fiscal conservatism and I doubt you could call either party fiscally moderate. If you've noticed Barack Obama's movements to the "Right" have really been about capturing support from "fiscally conservative" democrats and have not come close to even looking at the issues brought forward by conservatives. In other words, he is not moving to the "right" he is moving to the "center left" and you're surprised that conservatives don't embrace him when he really hasn't done anything that they like.
| gameonbro said: when the right talk about taking our country back from who and to what comes to mind. with the way the republican governors and legislatures have been amping up Jim Crow laws this year that answer is clear. |
What are you talking about? Which government has created a law about racial segregation?
| gameonbro said: Estimates says the stimulus shouldve been 1.5 trillion. But instead they cut it down so half. On top of that it included tax cuts that economist said were ineffective. However like I said before it wouldnt have matter since republican governors were posturing. America would be alot better off if those assholes in washington did what was right for the people instead of them politically or for the oligarchs in true power. |
Across the world Keynesian Stimulus has been tried dozens of times and has never (ever) worked ... Look at Japan, for a decade they tried debt-driven stimulus and it only resulted in them expanding their debt to 200% of GDP and they have constantly been on the verge of recession if they take the stimulus away.
More stimulus wouldn't have resulted in any more economic activity, it would have only resulted in more debt.
