Chuck Krauthammer writes that the left need not be concerned with the centrist appearance of the President-Elect.
On his domestic agenda he will go left and hard, involving the government in every aspect of the American economy.
He's got the power, the "money" and the Congress to do it.
Sounds plausible... and like the end of America as we have known it.
If it's like the end of America as we have known it for the past eight years, maybe it's not so bad.
ReplyDelete"..and like the end of America as we have known it"
ReplyDeleteYeah, a declining power, with a failing economy, hated around the world. I can see why you and "Chuck" are going to miss that.
"Chuck" mockingly writes:
"Transformation is his mission. Crisis provides the opportunity. The election provides him the power. "
But what is he mocking? "..to transform our economy to improve the lives of ordinary people."
Oh, the horror! Ordinary people with improved lives. Run for the hills!
"Chuck" (like so many of his ideological brethren) fails to understand that if we reduce health care costs and dependence on foreign oil with renewable resources, we remove major drains on the economy. If "Chuck" really want to save some money, pay the contractors in Iraq the same wages as the soldiers.
