He has said that......you weren't listening.

Sure...that's when they were all accusing him of being a pessimist and driving the markets and economy down with his overly realistic talk...

Ted, > He has said that......you weren't listening.

His actions do not reflect a belief that government's power is limited. Federal spending as a percentage of GDP is rising to EU levels. Obama has increased spending faster in the first six months of office than Bush during his first four years.

> Having said that, gov'ts around the world.....China, the EU, the UK, the Aussies, Brazil, et al........have taken the lead to try to avert disaster and get us back on track.

Their power is limited as well. Even China's.
