[TheRealThing]

Wow, that's just a cold thing to say...that is still fairly young in our time though, assuming that's his age.

It's all in the imagination for liberals Wide. His ideas about my physical state are just part of the overall self delusion with which he has framed the world around him.

At any rate, we've been down this path before, have we not? Start with the post he made citing, of all people, Rick Ungar, who is so far left of reality that even NASCAR's best could not hope to keep him in sight. I watch Rick speak nearly every Saturday morning, sometimes on more than one show, and he is always off by himself in La-La Land. He's not what you'd call an economist, he's just another left wing commentator with a heart full of soul. And yet, even though he appears on a panel where he actually is surrounded by real financial experts who are bonafide players on Wall Street, he continues to argue the Keynesian view irrespective of the evidence. To me, he is in the company of people like Alan Combes and possibly Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and of course to borrow a term, wannabes like RV.

He (Rick) starts off in the article cited by RV, (from back in 2012 no less) stating that the budgetary explosion in the first year of Obama's tenure was not of his own doing, owing to the long held view that he is saddled with the budget of the outgoing president. And yet, in the very first week of his tenure, Mr Obama added a trillion dollars to that inherited budget as the result of his stimulus package. And don't think it wasn't all his idea, he was so proud of it that he made sure he put his name on it. As anybody with even the most cursory familiarity with Keynesian Economics is aware, part and parcel to the concept of KE are government investments in the economy, financial tinkering if you will, with guidelines that are very often political in scope. Therefore, first priority was to rescue the economy by borrowing a trillion dollars. The free enterprise system is thusly in flux, as they have picked the winners they wanted, which means everybody else just pays their taxes and survives if they can.

Rick Ungar is a true believer, and he's all-in. As I have said and as the historical record clearly demonstrates over and over again, Keynesian Economics do not work. But, when a true believer is arguing something like KE, and they are as in this case working without benefit of knowing what they're talking about, they are left with little to come back with except insults. I became aware of this long ago, but so too are the voters in general, as they are becoming more and more aware. The left is notorious for personal attack. So far they've gotten by with riding the coattails of credibility, associated with the Democratic party's once valid reputation. In that light, many have been willing to give Dems the benefit of the doubt, rather than admit their party has been taken over by social justice zealots. None the less, the more they lie, and smear, the more they will lose votes.
