[quote=briansd1]I’m not blaming the GOP. I’m blaming the policies of the independent Federal Reserve. I’m blaming Alan Greenspan in particular.
I’m blaming the economic philosophy that led to the financial crisis of 2008 and the mess we have today.[/quote]
Brian: And there I will agree with you completely. Of course, “economic philosophy” is a mite grand. We haven’t had meaningful policies, philosophies, discussions, politics, programs, etc, in this country for quite some time.
We have done a fantastic job of can kicking, though, and then diverting everyone’s attention by deploying wedge issues like gay marriage. That, combined with an emasculated press, places us squarely where we are today.
