The Obama debt

The media made Obama the savior of the world. The media agrees and praises everything he said. The multi-trillion budget which the US government will spend whatever they do not have to buy up failing banks, insurance companies, auto-makers, etc. is considered good government policy. The democrats preached against Wall streets, big banks, or any big businesses are bad for the poor people. They are the ones who are subsidizing the big guys now. People forget that US already has multi-trillions of debt before this recession. The extra debt will be added on to the existing debt. Does his administration really know how to handle the debt bomb?

I agree.
I challenge this mad spending to “pull us through”. I believe it will backfire

In a word: no. But debt and the “Market Economy” are about the only things Democrats and Republicans both agree on. They want to revive a dead economy rather than make any of the fundamental structural changes that not only they but the majority of Americans appear to be in denial need to be made.
There is no stopping the inevitable crash no matter how much (worthless) money is thrown at it, and we can only pray that communities will come together to see each other through the hard times ahead.
