Hi tkc,
You should be.
The failure of this economy occurred on Bush's watch and now they prescribe as medications exactly the things which caused the problems. Small government, inadequate regulation, insufficient taxation to cover costs etc. Let's do it all over: housing bust, financial collapse, exploding oil platforms. Doomed to repetition. Doomed to repetition. Doomed to repetition. Doomed.
The US economy is running below capacity and appears to require further stimulus to restore growth. Trouble is, that is impossible within this politics.
The Mad Hatter would be proud.
It really comes back to this - a point too toxic for Americans to contemplate: this isn't a united state, it's a divergent one. The problem is that one size doesn't fit all.
