The Fruits of Socialism

Here are great current event illustrations of supply and demand, inflation, prices, and government intervention in a socialist economy.
Venezuela’s Central Bank says the annual inflation rate has hit 36 percent in the Caracas metropolitan area as food prices soared.

Government Health Care? Hawaii Experiment Fails.

From the AP:
Hawaii is dropping the only state universal child health care program in the country just seven months after it launched.
And this shocker- people were dropping their expensive coverage to get “free” government health care for their children.
“People who were already able to afford health care began to stop paying for it so they [...]

Final Presidential Debate – McCan or McCan’t?

Summary:
The MSM will say Obama won because he didn’t have to perform- he’s ahead.  This has been the same narrative for each of the debates.  Obama doesn’t have to do anything but show up. Just body surf and glow while on Rolling Stone magazine every month.  John McCain, a completely proven, tested, and known commodity, [...]

Pimp My Mortgage!

Thank you for your post Michelle.  I am so glad there is someone out there who still has sense about this stuff.

Get ready for Pimp My Mortgage! Go from subprime to sublime!

Mac and Cheese Debate; Obama’s Cabinet

Summary: Campaign slogans over and over.  Tom Brokaw serves up a bland diet of questions fit for a diabetic. Nothing challenging, nothing insightful, just slogans the whole night from both sides. Don’t bother to watch if you’ve DVR’d this.
Naturally, a tie goes to Obama because of his lead, his smile, and his body surfing ability.  [...]

Pay What You Can – Home Loans = Student Loans

After the government drama of the last few weeks, a few ideas/steps remain clear:
1) Credit is now a civil right in this country. Why not amend the Constitution?
2) Therefore people who could not traditionally qualify for credit (home ownership, credit cards) are now and will continue to receive it
3) Banks who do not extend credit [...]

Unity Obama – McCain Deserves No Credit for Bailout

Words come to mind when I read these articles- jerk, arrogant, buffoon- but none really are accurate enough.  We are in an age where truth does not matter, experience is a liability, and your presentation is king.
Obama says McCain has done nothing to help with the bailout.
Fox News has Obama’s comments about the bailout:
Asked during [...]

Obama’s Bracelet – Soldier Prop Fails

During the presidential debate on Friday Barack Obama anticipated and countered John McCain’s bracelet story with his own- except he had to look down and “uhhhh” read the bracelet (SGT Uhhhh) to remember the soldier’s name.
Ouch.
Here’s the video:

 
Now Michelle Malkin, Hot Air, and Newsbusters are all over a story started here [...]
