Election 2012--Simplified and Made Easy

[PLC1]

Buzzer Sound!!!! Wrong!

The economic disaster can be traced to this: Progressive/Socialist/Keynesian Ideology.

The mortgage market is and was HEAVILY regulated by government. No industry is more regulated than the banking industry and this has been true for DECADES. The government run by foolish libs imposed new rules forcing banks to make bad loans, which benefited mortgage brokers....but what you miss is this all occurred ONLY because GOVERNMENT run by FOOLS made it happen.

Who bailed out the banks, but the foolish progressives running our government.

What philosophy believes government spending will fix the problem? CLUE - it aint Capitalism.

Umm.. sure. Of course, it was Progressive/Socialist/Keynesian Ideology, otherwise known as "liberalism". Every ill that ever came out of Pandora's Box is traced to Liberalism, of course.

The Congress, the presidents of the past and future, and the private sector have nothing to do with it.

Sure.

You are a slow learner, but then you come to this forum new every day.

The congress and the presidents ARE and WERE progressives/liberals/Keynesians. The private sector...in this case the big banks, are in bed with big government. The banks CAN'T do whatever they want, which apparently you seem to believe. They can only do what Uncle says they can and when you have an omnipresent government like we have, Uncle controls it and is responsible for the consequences.

Get it....yet?

I will grant you that Wall Street and the Big Banks did play games in an effort to make higher profits, but once again, they knew Uncle would support them when half Bush's and BO's administration contain former Goldman Sachs jackasses. Government is suppose to protect the interests of it's people. Not the interests of big banks.

This is all a consequence of a government out of control and a few banks that were allowed to get too big by that every same government.

Only a too large government can be this much out of control. A smaller gov could not have colluded with banks to such a large degree. Scrap all the ridiculuous regulation and have a more streamlined gov that focuses on prosecuting bad bankers rather than regulating law abiding ones. Before regulation NO BANKER with half a mind would have loaned money to someone who could not afford to pay it back. But if some foolish banker did loan money to someone who could not afford he house the person most to blame would be the person who lied about his income in order to get a loan for a house he could never afford to make payments on.

Should gov determine the size of any business - limit its size? No absolutely not! Should gov make deals with some banks specifically so that they can grow in size? No, and that is the real crime.

which gets us back to what I said to begin with. Partly Congress, partly the president(s), partly private sector greed. If the banks couldn't sell subprime mortgages as good investments, if they couldn't count on Uncle Sam to bail them out when things went south, then they wouldn't have made subprime loans in the first place. So, yes, it's all a consequence of a government out of control and a few banks that were allowed to get too big by that every same government.

Here again you completely miss the point....did you feel that swish going over your head?

Yes, its government's fault!!! And who runs government? Liberal/progressive/keynesians do!!! And their policies are the cause. If only all Americans would recognize this, we could eliminate this horrendous ideology. Instead, the dumb ass media blames capitalism and many Americans believe the lie.

Can you admit the culprit is left wing government policies?

Depends on how you define "left wing."

I've often said that fiscal conservatives are just about extinct in Washington.

Left wing defined - Just about everyone who has served in Congress and the oval office for the past 2-3 decades. As such, leftist policies are to blame for the economic mess we find ourselves. Agreed?

And yes there are few fiscal conservatives in DC. Do you know who the few are? They are Tea Party members and what have the Dems and their press said about them?

yes, and that includes members of both parties.

Dems and their press?

No, I'm not. I wasn't aware that the Dems had their own press. Do the liberal Republicans have one too?

Why do you persist with this silliness? Are you stoned again?

Just replying to the content of your posts.

If my replies are silly, then I'm answering silliness with silliness.

Allowed to get too big? Where in the Const does gov have the power to limit the size of business? The problem was not that they were too big (unless of course they were too big because they were given special legislative help), the problem was that politicians claimed they needed to be bailed out because they were too big.

I'd only suggest changing it to say they were allegedly too big to fail.
Never saw such a thing ever written anywhere suggesting that such a thing was possible.
