It is amazing how many people are still pouring into the United States to join in our suffering, like the guy in their picture with the walk-man stuck in his head. Why didn’t they tell him to take that out and look more poor?
This article points out that our welfare roles have increased due ”… to recent efforts to increase public awareness of the programme…”(Isn’t their spelling cute?)
So when your lefty friends go around encouraging people to get Uncle Sam’s Club debit cards, tell them thank you.
They are following a great tradition of fear mongering that actually began the real Great Depression. Right now our three Democrat candidates, (two fast socialists and one gradual one) are pandering on one level or another to these isolationist panic attacks ala Smoot-Hawley.
Obama leads the pack as the Smoot-Hawleyest, with Hillary lying in at a close second. Playing on the shattered hopes of exploitative unions who chased their own jobs away, Obama says he will offer “tax-incentives” for business to stay in the U.S. That means a De facto tariff on everyone else and presto! Economic slowdown + protectionist drivel = accelerated economic slowdown. Just like Smoot-Hawley.
Smoot & Hawley just after laying the groundwork for the fear-mongers of the future.
Thanks Guys!
What I find more amazing than the failure to read a history book of the 4th grade level, is the willingness to repeat the mistakes contained in said book.
As of this writing, there is not a single report out there of -1%. That means we don’t even have a recession technically. No recession and these losers are calling for the Great Depression 2008? Don’t they know that our real Great Depression helped send the World into depression?
Let’s have a look at something. These are pictures from the real Great Depression.
How many Americans do you know who live in tents? Do you know there were stories about having to eat rat back then? Ha! Try buying some rat now with an Uncle Sam’s Club Card. You can’t even buy rat now! Man they had it good…

Look at this, real poverty. No walk-mans, no bus, no police to stop someone from taking advantage of your plight. But by golly, they stopped that nasty Global Trade!

Now let’s look at the “Great Depression of 2008″
There up front is our walk-man guy… and whats this up top? “Win Macbook Air laptops & Ipod Touch music players”
Drink that picture in for a moment.
They are declaring our great depression while running a contest to win our MacBooks & our Ipods on our internet. (Yup. It’s still largely ours.)
They wrote and posted this article with our software and operating systems. Someone will watch a segment about it on a broadcast from one of our satellites.
If this is really the new Great Depression, I’ll take it.
