But my hope for this country is starting to wane. I was halfway optimistic about the Obama Presidency with all his talk about "change." He also called out President Bush and said we needed "fiscal responsibility" instead he has resorted to antiquated economic values, that will never work. On top of that he has lied to the american people saying "There is no disagreement that we need action by our government, a recovery plan that will help to jump start the economy." And just last week the cato institute took out a full page ad in the New York Times and The Washington Post with hundreds of economists, several of them being nobel prize winners who disagree, you can see that here http://www.cato.org/special/stimulus09/cato_stimulus.pdf We are not getting change we are getting bullsh*t. Im going to use a quote from the dark knight, "When the time comes for me to say 'I told you so,' I wont want to." But I guess all we can do is fight the good fight and keep "hoping" Ive been hoping before President Obama took it and made it into a bad word. But my hope for this country is starting to wane.
