11/27 There will be no discussion of the dollar's collapse, casualties
in Iraq, the soon to be cancelled election, or anything else that
might reflect unfavourably on Our Glorious Leader.
\_ Ah, the liberal commentators have reared their ugly heads.
How does it feel to be continuously losing, out of power,
and basically wrong? And what hath happened to thine cries
for emigration my faithful liberal? Useful idiots indeed!
\_ hey motd economists: I've been puzzling over the difference
between "tax and spend liberals" and "deficit spending
republicans" since I realized the dollar did this during
Reagan's tenure as well. What differences are there between
taxing citizens and siphoning value out of the US economy
to fund government activity (besides the marketing appeal
of claiming to not tax)? This is a serious question because
I don't claim to understand the global market dynamics. |
