The WSJ predicts what the Liberal Govt. will bring

[Anti.Hero]

if conservatism = free-markets and kill-govt, then conservatism is dead.

Yes because it hasn't made USA top dog in the entire known universe or anything over the last few decades.

It hasn't created the most wealth and in return dispensed the most wealth. Nope. Amerika ing evil free-market capitalists!!

[Anti.Hero]

Why is this a bad thing?

global warming is just another excuse for government to gain control of people/business.

Wake up people.

And no, there is not a named author; but it is food for discussion. A couple of the predictions might be a stretch, but much is probably pretty accurate. The "fairness doctrine" and regulation of the internet are chilling thoughts.

Actually, the internet regulation being pe ioned for is one I support. 'Net Neutrality' is exactly what has made the Internet what it is. If all of a sudden, phone/cable companies start asking Kori to pay up or be put on the really-slow-lane, then we start again with the elitism and the different rules depending on how much money you have.

We'll see.

Somehow I doubt it will be quite as dramatic as a lot of hand-wringers on the right always expect.

After a decade or three of the right-wing agenda driving American politics, and that not really working out so well for the average American, I guess we will get to see how the left handles things.

"That handout is for every American"

You're the dumb for believing, still, in trickle down, for believing the Repug lying press releases.

The banks are now saying they will use the Repug welfare handouts to fill their black holes, NOT to increase their lending, and free up the credit market.

The article forgot to mention that we'll all be forced into gay marriages and have yearly abortions.

The European banks did the same thing before the USA bail out was even voted for.

LOL @ this country not even forcing Paulsen to step down for having a conflict of interest. This is truly amazing.

And LOL almost as much for this partisan hack calling it a repug welfare handout when Bush + Dem majority were waiting on the Rep Minority to say yes.

Yeah, Trickle Down Economics doesn't work.

Let's try Trickle Up Poverty.

You mean the "handout" that was championed by Pelosi and defeated in the House and then the Senate version sponsored by Partick Kennedy that balooned to 2232 earmarks and was then passed?

That "handout"?

We're all going to die.

Like Iraq, Paulsen's bail out was a Repug idea, and it's working about just as well as Iraq has.

the Dems for going along, but Iraq and bail out are primarily Repug fiascos.

The anti-bail out Repugs went along, too, as soon as they were bought off with enough pork.
