Well, you don’t actually need to wait to hear the glowing word from President Bush’s press conference today. He says we don’t need to do anything because the economy is about to rebound.
That’s right, the Herbert Hoover of the 21st century is at it again, though he’s not explicitly promising a barrel of Iraqi oil in every pot.
Both he and Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson are against any further stimulus, i.e., an extension in unemployment benefits like Speaker Nancy Pelosi is pushing.
Well, if she hadn’t given away the store on this in original negotiations… but, that’s another story.
But, the economy is going to rebound!
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
