zFacts: The Market Says Stimulus Is the Answer

The outcome of conservative austerity economics

"We are now headed into the worst slump since 1938, and you better hope Obama can fix it because that was not a pretty time. Unfortunately, as in the Great Depression, the extreme conservatives would rather trash the country than have our government succeed. They are much worse than Bush.

The main thing to remember is that, with consumer spending going down, business is going to lay people off—not hire them. You can't blame business for this. It's just a vicious cycle that the economy gets into. And you can't blame consumers for not spending in bad times.

The only way out of this, if we don't want to wait 10 years, is for the government to spend, pay unemployment insurance, or give tax breaks to people who will spend (not the rich). 

Of course there's also the problem of the banks. Obama should stop saving the bankers, and just take over the bad banks. Once they're working they can be sold back to the private sector."

The black and white world of the far right conservative and women


Right wing nuts see the world in black and white. A good example are the views of these folks on race and the conservative view that America was founded as a white Christian nation.

Conservatism functions more like a reaction to liberalism than a philosophy that has a clear set of values.

For example, young people in high school need sexual abstinence, not sex education. Chastity rings are certainly more effective than the pill, aren't they?

Whoops, abstinence didn't work and a young women is preggers. Well, don't even think about an abortion, young lady. According to Rick Santorum, even if a women is raped, the pregnancy is a gift from God.

By the way, once your "gift from God" is born, don't ask a conservative government for help raising your child. Raise that child on your bootstraps and don't put your hand out for government welfare.

Regarding taxes, if we cut the income, tax, the capital gains tax and the estate tax for American's most productive people, the affluent, this will create jobs for a welfare queen like yourself. We did this when GW Bush was president and look how the Ownership society thrived.

The Great Recession and the sub-prime mortgage crises would have been a lot worse of Bush hadn't cut those taxes.

Had you remembered America was founded a white Christian nation, you would have never gotten preggers to begin width. Those who attend church are less affected by the sins of the flesh.

Go to church, harlot before I have to cast the first stone!
