SNL slams Obama over spending.

While SNL has made fun of Obama before, this is probably the most accurate and brutal mockery we have seen so far!  Not only is it actually funny (for the first time), but it tends to capture much of what some of us have been trying to explain to those believing that Obama actually knows what he is doing.  Truth is, Obama's agenda is not what we are battling against, but rather that of Pelosi and Reid with Obama rallying the liberal base in the background. 

More importantly the monetary policy that has lead this country down a one way path to destruction is not necessarily Obama's fault, nor Bush's and not even Clinton's.  Yet we must admit that if not for Obama, then things like the 787 Stimulus package, (Obama/Pelosi/Reid)Care would probably not be the current topic of discussion.

Seems like SNL has finally come to it's senses and beginning to understand the very dangerous path we have embarked.  Now, when will the rest of the rational liberal base wake up? 

Note:  It gets progressively funnier, although the cash-for-clunker joke is factually incorrect considering all the clunkers were destroyed.

The 2009 credit boom is coming to an end.

The credit expansion boom of 2009 will eventually go down as yet another period of credit expansion promoted by the Fed that will have lead to another predictable bust.   Today, it will be interesting to examine how the various levels of production are behaving under years and years of artificial interest rate suppression.  It will also be helpful to look at charts and graphs examining the business cycle theory and the impact of time preference as taught by Mises. For starters, those new to the concept - a very brief paraphrasing of the general idea. Under a healthy functioning market people's consumer patterns impact their savings.  More consumption equals less saving and less consumption more saving.  In order to progress the society must save such that it can make investments in machinery, equipment, technology, etc if it hopes to increase the capacity of production.   Sure ,you can harvest 10 coconuts a day, consume them by night and repeat the process...

What is wrong with this country?

I was browsing the latest IBD poll and it finally struck me. I had this idea brewing for the past few weeks now and this particular poll hit a nerve. What jumped out was the age group and who they are likely voting for. Obama / McCain 18-24: 74% 21% The rest of the age groups are more or less even with ages 65+ leaning more for McCain. Those folks should probably avoid leaning - hazardous to their health. Now, if you are a member of this group and are part of the 74% you are probably feeling good about yourself. If you are in the 21% then you are probably used to feeling desperate and angry that your peers ostracize you as if you were the next coming of the bubonic plague. But this number is very telling. Showing to us that a large group of freshly minted liberals, on average still in college, is in a very good position to influence these elections. Enthralled by the concept of "what they want the world to be" and their utopian ideals they hammer their message to anyone willi...
