Good post, 3333. I appreciate you clarifying a few things. I agree with pretty much everything you said. I just think that when it is packaged as an attack on dems, many people that would normally normally listen to you, will dismiss it as another conservative windbag bitching session.
Overall, I believe that traditional democratic thought on fiscal policy (the belief that if you are going to run a deficit to counter downturns in the business cycle, it's better to do so as an increase in gov't spending or tax cuts to the middle class because it results in a 4x multiplier effect to GDP as that money gets spent thru the economy) is superior to supply-side, or, Reaganomics (tax cuts to the wealthy and/or corporations, much of which does NOT trickle down and create jobs like many conservatives want you to believe, which results in only a PORTION of that deficit boosting/benefitting the economy). But when deficits are run to the extent at which they are by Obama's administration, via the continued support (bailouts) of the Wall Street criminals (in addition to seeing our tax dollars "disappear" via the Fed to overseas banks, fighting unnecessary wars, wasteful social programs and "green" bullshit initiatives), it's MUCH more damaging. When the debt is monetized into the economy, as is being done now, and at the rate it is now, it's dangerously inflationary and it's going to wreck our country and way of life.
So, for now, fiscal conservatism is called for.... but that does NOT mean tax cuts. As Schiff says, we have to suffer now to avoid greater suffering later. Meaning.... we have to CUT SPENDING dramatically, and keep taxes the same, or raise them where possible. Obviously, nobody in Washington wants to do that because the NWO and Global Banking cartel has Washington busy fighting each other for re-election and ignoring their responsibilities to the country, because doing that facilitates their continued takeover of our lives.
