Zero the Marxist Economist

Well, the Nightmare begins.

This clueless, gormless dork is going to be "ruling" the United States for the next four years.

Did you hear the speech? Zero believes that government spending into furious, mad debt is the way to "fix" the economy. Massive, inescapable, crushing debt, with worthless greenbacks being printed like monopoly money...

...hey, that sounds like a common sense solution to me. Isn't that what you'd do if you were in financial trouble? Spend more, and make sure the money you do have loses most of its value?

President-elect Barack Obama warned of dire and long-lasting consequences if Congress doesn't pump unprecedented dollars into the national economy, making an urgent pitch Thursday for his mammoth spending proposal in his first speech since the election.

What a great idea.

Is the man actually this stupid? Or is this part of a plan to ruin the United States? 'Cause if that's what it is, he's definitely workin' his mojo...'cause it could not be more effective.

I admit, I can't figure out whether he's going for pure Marxism or complete Anarchy—clarity and specificity not being among his rhetorical skills—but clearly, Constitutional, Free-Market, Democratic Republicanism is obviously out of the question.

Obama made broader arguments, too, saying that the private sector cannot do what is needed now.

"At this particular moment, only government can provide the short-term boost necessary to lift us from a recession this deep and severe," he said

I'm not sure if I've ever heard anything so diametrically opposed to all of historical fact and experience, proven truth, and so diabolically stupid. Never, ever, in the history of the world has "government" interference—even when it's called a "boost"—ever improved an economy.

But apparently Zero, the Magic Negro feels that normal space/time continuum reality does not apply to him or his ideas.

It's gonna be a long, long, long, fucking four years.
