When Democrats don't interfere

US Dearth Warrant

“ Government spending, deficits, and debt creation of this magnitude is simply unheard of. So the added TARP money will surely imperil the entire stimulus package as taxpayers around the country begin to digest the enormity of these proposed government actions. Financing of this type would not only destroy the U.S. fiscal position for years to come, it could destroy the dollar in the process. What's more, the likelihood of massive tax increases -- which at some point will become front and center in this gargantuan funding operation -- would doom the economy for decades. - Larry Kudlow ” Thank the 177 Republicans (100%),  and 11 democrats who voted against this monstrosity.  Whether you believe this entire affair was orchestrated by the likes of Soros and friends (I do), or that democrats are just piss poor money managers (I do), this has to be stopped.  But Rodge, what should we do?  I'll tell you what to do.  Go back to what made us a great nation.  Encourage the creation of new manufacturing and business ventures. Eliminate all Cap Gains taxes now. Eliminate all environmental business mandates. Drill for oil like a madman. Eliminate all possible restrictions aimed at capital creation (new businesses). Curtail tort lawyers stranglehold on business. Cut government services to the bone. Eliminate the IRS in favor of the 17% flat tax. In less than two years we'll be the only nation in the world growing like gangbusters. Because this is who we are, when gummint doesn't get in the way.

Pelosi's breeding ground

The California problem run amok

San Francisco Bay Area.  Breeding grounds of Democrats who currently have the United States in a death grip.   Pelosi, Waxman, Boxer, et al, *Sputtering too much.*  Here. “  (01-26) 20:04 PST  -- Berkeley's public library will face a showdown with the city's Peace and Justice Commission tonight over whether a service contract for the book check-out system violates the city's nuclear-free ordinance. The dispute centers on a five-year, $63,000 contract the library wants to sign with 3M, an international technology company based in Minnesota, to service five scanner machines library patrons use to check out books. But 3M, a company with operations in 60 countries, refused to sign Berkeley's nuclear-free disclosure form as required by the Nuclear Free Berkeley Act passed by voters in 1986. As a result, the library's self-checkout machines have not been serviced in about six months. Library officials say 3M is the only company authorized by the manufacturer to fix the machines, which were purchased in 2004. The library asked the Peace and Justice Commission for a waiver, but at its Jan. 5 meeting the commission voted 7-1, with two abstentions, to reject the request. The library is now appealing the decision to the City Council. ” This all too absurd, but lest you feel sorry for the poor liberry managers, they are, don't forget, cut from the same herd. “ "We would not ever have selected 3M on our own, but we were thrust into this," said Donna Corbeil, director of library services. "We're not happy about it, but right now there's no alternative." ” "We were thrust into this ...?" Thrust into what, and by whom?  But wait.  A happy ending?
