This is about creative destruction.

Oh.. you got that right brother.. Obama and his boys are QUITE CREATIVE about how they are going to destroy this economy and turn it into a welfare state. And they will work to centralize Federal power even more. I can tell that in the Western US many governors are stating to rebel against this spending if it creates programs that the Fed's are going to force the states to pay for in future years.

But hell.. just look at the earmarks and pork barrel spending (political paybacks for getting Obama elected)

Look at the latest budget bill.. something like 9,000 earmarks are getting voted on tonight.

The biggest problem is that seem to be totally focusing on the wrong areas for creating economic growth and productivity. Instead, they are spending more on entitlements as well expanding gov't service jobs.

Plus ça change...plus c'est la même chose
