THE NOTION THAT REPUBLICANS...AND ROMNEY..."WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE ECONOMY" IS ACCEPTED AS TRUTH...
SIMPLY BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN ACCEPTED AS TRUTH... NOT BECAUSE IT REALLY IS TRUE...!
CONSIDER:
BUSH TRASHED THE ECONOMY WITH DE-REGULATION, TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH, TWO UNFUNDED WARS AND AN UNFUNDED DRUG PROGRAM FOR SENIORS... THE BUBBLES WHERE ALLOWED TO RUN...UNTIL THEY CRASHED IN 2008...CAUSING THE "BUSH DEPRESSION"....
OBAMA CAME IN AT THE START OF THE DEPRESSION AND HAS BEEN USING STANDARD KEYNESIAN ECONOMICS TO REVERSE THE BUSH PLUNGE... IT HAS NOT WORKED WELL BECAUSE THE ECONOMY IS SO DAMAGED THAT THERE ARE LONG TERM STRUCTURAL ISSUES...LIKE DE-INDUSTRIALIZATION AND OFF SHORING...THAT CONTINUE TO BE A DRAG...
SO LET ROMNEY TALK ABOUT THE ECONOMY...!
THE PROBLEM IS THAT ALL HE TALKS ABOUT IS OBAMA'S INABILITY TO REVERSE THE DEPRESSION BUSH CAUSED...BY ALLOWING THE LOOTING TO CONTINUE FOR FAR TOO LONG...
ROMNEY REALLY HAS NOT MENTIONED ANYTHING NEW...THAT HE WOULD DO DIFFERENT THAT BUSH...
THE USUAL SUSPECTS ARE RECITED...TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH...DEREGULATION OF SPECULATORS...
AND DO NOTHING ABOUT HEALTH CARE...EXCEPT MAYBE CUT IT FOR THE POOR AND THE ELDERLY...!
SO LETS TALK ABOUT THE ECONOMY...AND NOT JUST THE BUSH DEPRESSION...LETS TALK ABOUT WHAT TO DO NEXT...
NOT A LITANY OF KEYNESIAN POLICY THAT OBAMA HAS USED TO STOP THE BUSH PLUNGE...THAT WAS EXPENSIVE...STOPPING A DEPRESSION ALWAYS IS...! SO....
SO NOW WHAT MITT...?
YOU WANT TO BE PRESIDENT FROM 2012 TO 2016...NOT THE PRESIDENT WHO TOOK OVER AFTER THE BUSH/REPUBLICAN COLLAPSE OF 2008...OBAMA DID THAT AND HE STOP THE PLUNGE...
TELL US WHATS NEXT...? "THE PLAN"...DO YOU DARE...?
MORE TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH...MORE OFF SHORING...MORE DE-REGULATION...
BACK TO THE FUTURE...?
LETS TALK ABOUT THE ECONOMY...!!
