Bush may be an imbecile, but….

Henry Paulson stand firm in this regard too. He does not welcome anymore bailout especially for flippers, investers and banks. He agreed that it will do more harm than good and I completely agree. I am starting to change my mind to vote for Republican now because they seem to have some sort of direction and bottom lines, unlike Democrats. They only rush for more bailout programs that they did not really think about the details. They use that as their tools for political reasons in which I hate.

Both Hillary and Obama have a populist rhetoric today; they have both announced that they’d renegotiate NAFTA. They do this ostensibly to capture votes from displaced manufacturing workers in Ohio. But still, it worries me that if elected, they would damage free trade.

So, I wouldn’t be surprised if any of them two yields to the pressure to bail out large banks and FBs.

GWB’s allegiance to religious extremists and his decision to invade Iraq and its aftermath have made his administration one of the worse on record, if not the worst. However, in economic matters, he’s done mostly the right things:

1. Lowered taxes

2. Proposed a guest worker program (that would largely reduce illegal immigration and make cross-border labor flow subject to control by authorities, as opposed to the current chaotic situation)

3. Resisted using tax-payer money to bail out irresponsible financial firms and overextended borrowers who created this housing bubble mess in the first place

Well, Hillary’s accusation that Obama is “to the right of Bush” on housing make me hopeful that we’ll have good policy on the issue, since I think he’ll be the next president. Which, IMHO, is a good thing.

I have no idea what McCain would do. Haven’t seen any statements from him regarding whether intervention in this housing correction would be good or bad. Anyone else?

IMO McCain has no opinion on the economy whatsoever. I remember him saying that rising interest rates made housing unaffordable and caused the current situation. So he will just read whatever speeches his domain-expert advisers will write. Just like the current administration.

Clinton just says anything that she thinks people want to hear. Obama prefers to avoid specifics.

None of candidates (except Ron Paul, of course) understands the issues the economy is facing.
