all the environmentalists have accomplished is blocking energy exploration and production
their efforts are 95% blocking energy, 5% new alternatives
wrong priority emphasis

"supreme benefits of government protected private property and unified set of rules"
you mean protection of pensions, judicial military govt
and all the other crippling entitlements
California recently has made this clear
if they fired every single state worker in CA, their budget would still be $6B in the red!!!
the govt doesnt protect private rights
they protect their own existence
they cover up most evidence of wrongdoing
the Fed and ESF (PPTeam) has numerous violations
most rules do not apply to the Ruling Elite, and you know that
idealism yielded to pragmatism and corruption long ago!

gonna be enormous growth in need to spend on unemploymt insurance

the depression between Bush1 and Bush2 was set up by colossal loss of honesty, integrity, and legitimate govt leadership during the Clinton, Rubin, Greenspam administrations, where truth was sacraficed in utter defiance, where gold was used to subsidize the Trez market, thus reducing interest rates, where productivity was given the false credit (no more than 2.0%), thus building a stock and currency asset bubble which is coming apart at the seams during the Bush2 era, and which is blamed by moronic Democrats and other Mindless Liberals as Bush2's fault

take a close look at the policies from 1995 to 2000
the stock market broke in March 2000, under Clinton's Watch
take a close look at the Strong Dollar policy under Rubin, who by the way is considered the world's foremost currency futures trader, and now continues in an advisory capacity
the Strong Dollar Policy is now being unwound, with predictable havoc to the financial markets
and Mindless Naive Liberals continue to lay blame like absolute utter idiots at Bush's feet, while showing convenient lapse in memory of events from the last decade

incredibly shallow

he is reponsible for a lousy economic team, which means a dumb fat slow cop has been left to sit and watch as the house begins to crumble from its own weight and faulty foundation
while fools blame the falling house on the dumb fat slow cop who continually says stupid things

with all due respect
