DREAMING OF A WHITE CHRISTMAS, OR WHATEVER!

Oh my, white powder! or a green economy, only if I had not been sober since the late seventies, the treasury has a plan, and the markets are up, Dow is up over three hundred, the recession must be over, the Armageddon is stared down at the free markets door step.

And I don't have any white powder or any green leafy substance, or the good pills that Alice took.

As the rabbit spoke, Alice could "see" his words, taking the shape of a tail, she was lost in her own thoughts, and could see the story words forming in the shape of a tail, a twisted and a tortured tail. The tail was scary, ( read below), and it pronounced a death.

We are a good people, compassionate, and caring and utterly immature, perpetually immature.

Where is this money coming form, and how will it be paid back? What IS Obama's plan?

We spent eight years listening to Mr. Bush about how the wealth was being created, and I was warning about us being the brokest country on the plane. He told us to go out and spend money, and we did, and he spent the country in to bankruptcy, while we borrowed more of the money being created out of thin air.

Now Obama is going to fix all the problems of this country, with the money he does not have, and all will be well, in the land of OZ, formerly known as the US of A.


We can not solve all the problems with money, NO SIR! No more than we can fix all ailments with snake oil. Our problems are structural and very much human. I have argued for years that we waste money in education when the kids are not willing to learn, where the parents don't give a damn and where the kids are more interested in screwing, and foot ball and beauty pageants.
We can not solve the crime problems where the kids are had just for having kids, and then thrown out to raise themselves while the "parents" are trying to get their own lives together.

Similarly we can not fix the jobs problems when we say we are committed to a global economy, we can not increase wages and reduce poverty when someone overseas can do the job cheaply, and we can provide health benefits when we want everyone to live for ever, even the brain dead ones.

So here is the only question I want to ask Obama, Geithner , Bernanke and Bush, tell me the truth please, will things will EVER be as good as we had, or are we in for a long long period of depressed economy, higher joblessness, more poverty, more crime, fewer people with health benefits, no retirement. Are we not just another third world country?

LIFE IS A GAME OF CONNECT THE DOTS, IF YOU DON'T CONNECT ALL THE DOTS OR DON'T CONNECT THEM IN THE RIGHT ORDER YOU NEVER GET THE PICTURE
