Honestly, I hate Perry and Bachmann. The only GOP candidate I take seriously is Ron Paul. That is who I'm voting for. The rest are bought and paid for by the financial industry and I'd readily agree with you that it is their ilk that got us into this mess in the first place.

However, getting us out of this mess will take someone who understands the economy better. Unfortunately, the Democrats don't get it either. Keynesianism is giving more heroin to the heroin addict. You don't solve a debt crisis with more debt. Do you really think they are going to solve the Greek crisis with endless more lending and more debt? No way. Neither is the US going to solve our crisis and economic issues with more money printing and more deficit spending and more debt.

Get rid of the heroin and we will most surely feel pain. A lot of it, but there is light at the end of that tunnel. We will survive and come away stronger and we will no longer be addicts. Keep taking more heroin, though, and it will kill us.
