Have you seen what the federal gov't did with the program it
initiated to help victims rebuild their homes in NO? Yikes.
Bureaucrats are good at layering bull**** between good intentions and
execution.


The mistake made there was depending on a bureaucratic government to
execute the details of
the program. The government is good at approving and allocating
money, that's all.
Make the funding available to hands-on people that know how to get
things done.

Normally, I wouldn't even propose federal funding for new company
start-ups (or even SBA loans) because I think learning how to
self-fund a company is as important as the product or service you
provide. However, given the crisis that currently exists and the
increase in un-employment, a temporary avenue for start-up funding
using federal money (now being completely wasted on bailouts and so
called "stimulus" packages) would be money much better spent in the
long run with benefits to the economy and country that are more
concrete and long lasting.

Just an idea.

Reduce government regulation at the local, state and federal levels and
cut long term capital gains to 5%. Let businesses be businesses and not
bureaucracies. Get the current capital in the market working again.

We've had eight years of little or no regulation...no thanks. We're
supposed to trust business to do the right thing, when its motivation
seems to be greed and short-term profit? The behavior of business gives
me no warm and fuzzy feelings we should return to the 19th century.

The year was 1980. Runny Nose Raygun had the same plan. Deregulate and
prop up business.The Hunt brothers had done the unbelievable, cornered the
silver market. Today it's oil.

I wish Runny Nose was still alive making Nancy's life miserable. She
deserves it from the way she listened to her soothsayers to run things
from behind the curtain.

Nothing new here folks, move along!

Old plans sound familiar that's all.

The plan that worked brought three terms to a president. Make work even
though it was CCC. Collaborate with other politicians to start a world war
in the end. One with heros that everyone knew their name. Not caskets
hidden from view.

The fifties seem like the good ol' days. A return to the roaring twenties.
The circle begins a new loop.

How does Hooverville sound or just "Jerk-Bush".
