No solutions to crisis
In a lifetime of study in practical economics, I have learned the following things will not solve a major economic crisis:
• A Hollywood smile and a busy public relations team.
• Meaningless promises of hope and change.
• Spinning the facts of our crisis so the imperceptive public can’t figure out what is happening.
• Blaming the past administration for what is happening when you are in control.
• Borrowing and spending enormous sums of money on pet political projects.
• Appointing for ones advisors people who have failed to manage their own personal financial affairs.
• Promoting the liberal social and economic agenda rather than addressing the real financial crisis that is crushing millions ofAmerican workers.
• Trying to get the nation out of debt by spending enormous sums of borrowed money.
• Trying to destroy and bury your political opponents in order to secure your long-term political power.
• Wining and dinning your liberal political friends at the White House.
• Listening to the fiscal advice of economic pirates like George Soros.
