Republicans are bummed out that the Democratic party is in control. If they want to, the Democrats can push through any piece of legislation they desire without anything more than vocal protests. President Obama has made it clear during his first week in office that it was going to be his way or the highway, when he told Republican leaders that ‘he won’.
Everyone is too big to fail. Treasury Secretary Nominees are too important to disqualify simply because they can’t master Turbo-Tax, nor are they willing to pay their taxes. We give corporations money, then immediately tell them how they can spend it.
So maybe it is a good thing that Republicans can actually affect nothing, because when it collapses hopefully people will see that it is a failure of government to accomplish something our government was never intended to accomplish in the first place. Maybe then we can try to get out of the way of a truly free market and let it take care of itself.
The sooner government gets out of the business of nurse maid the sooner we can start to recover.
But that’s just My Arrogant Opinion.
