Participant[quote=denverite]The only long-term cure will be when the government adopts policies that create and maintain middle-class (production) jobs. This means that,as a nation, we must produce goods and services that the US and the remainder of the world will need.[/quote]
Agreed: Green Tech, Stem Cells, Doritos.

[/quote]So we have a poll from the website of the network watched by Wall Street investors, the very network which broadcasted the rant in question. Can you say ‘echo chamber?’. I stand by my claim that Wall Street and The CNBC crowd are NOT Average Americans. This is the crux of Santelli’s argument, and exactly the issue I have with his rant. I don’t in general disagree with his argument, but the hypocrisy, gall, and venom displayed by this guy and Wall Street is pathetic.

Those were bad examples that I posted. All I’m looking for from Tucker is some evidence that “most Americans feel this way.” His claim was not whether or not the bailout would work, it was that “most Americans feel this way.” So in that respect, a poll sampling what Americans think about the bailout is exactly what I’m looking for. This is Tucker’s thread, so shouldn’t the obligation be on him to provide supporting evidence?
I’d also like some intellectual honesty from Santelli. Where was his outrage at the bank bailouts? I seem to recall him being stunned/angered that Lehman was left to die. Where was his rant on the auto bailouts? Does he really believe that pit traders on Wall Street are representative of everyday Americans? That’s not honesty. That’s disconnect.
