This is what is being ignored by the novices such as Obama and his so called economic advisors. The only growth that we are seeing is growth in the government debt which will not be able to be met.

You can give all of the fancy tax credits and breaks for 'clean energy' etc. but it doesn't mean a darn thing when companies and homeowers are pushed to the hilt with staying afloat and cannot afford to put necessary $ into unproven technologies.

"The message also has to be targeted at the reality that the dizzying declines in the markets cannot be arrested and reversed with tax hikes and unemployment benefit extensions.

Even as people shudder at the rapid decline in their savings and retirement accounts, they have to be trusted to know that anti-growth polices of the sort being pushed by Obama will simply drive business, jobs and growth overseas. A tax hike agenda of the sort pushed by Obama right now is economic suicide, and John McCain has to forcefully say so."
